Pros

- strong salary, some bonus, benefits - some expert colleagues - theoretical possibility of internal mobility - some interesting projects

Cons

- toxic work environment (bullying, gaslighting, gossip, passive aggressive hostility) - no mentorship whatsoever - public harassment and abuse, being yelled at in an open office - line manager knows he is protected by the company and HR and abuses his reports, constant violation of the "Code of Conduct" - diversity and inclusion initiative turned upside down where ethnic minorities and women become most likely to get abused on a daily basis - stack ranking pitting team members against each other contributing to toxicity - zero collaborative spirit due to above - a ton of line managers without any relevant technological skills - heavy politics, favoritism, nepotism - all about the perception/image, not about tech skills and who does good work - horrible work life balance with a lot of unpaid overtime on most of the projects - mostly very boring work - horrible internal technology and tools (Athena) - cannot install any software tool or library without weeks of waiting on approval, resulting in just not installing and "doing it ourselves" - some of the most valuable development resources (GitHub) blocked from visiting - incredibly bureaucratic in general - tech personnel second-class citizens to bankers

Pros

The compensation is good. The people are great. People treat each other with respect and working between teams is usually a very good experience.

Cons

Promotions are very hard unless you are part of the Indian clique within upper management. Processes are heavy and improvements are often not made with statements that revolve around regulator concerns. Hybrid work is at least 3 days on sight. The pace is challenging with weekend after weekend of work. Office and equipment is outdated with monitors not being uniform.

Pros

Good ctc but if you negotiate well. Yearly hikes are good too.

Cons

So many- 1) No idea howwww the rating here is 4.1 because it exploits people on an inhuman scale. 2) The manager has no leash and treats you like a slave. Being in JP Morgan will make you realize what a toxic environment is that people keep talking about. 3) So as per the Manager if you take a leave, even if a sick one YOU HAVEEEE TO PICK UP THE CALL else no leave shall be granted in future. 4) This manager insults every member of the team in team meetings in his LOCAL language to get that effect properly. 5) Employees are so scared of losing their job so they dont go to HR and are just leaving after completing a year. 6) WLB is non existing. 6am-2am is the normal. 7) PM has 0 technical knowledge and forces you to get 5-6 tasks in a day which would take 14-16 hrs to complete. If you dont comply there is mental harassment by him constantly calling. 8) Other employees tried complaining in the past to the HR it seems but no action was taken. 9) So HR is just for namesake. Company posts fairytales on employee wellbeing while treating them like slaves. 10) Manager has absolutely no regard for privacy of employees. Calling them day and night and talking to them in threatening tone. Now comes the major surprise. This is not one off or a particular project. This behaviour is common across aallllllllll projects so changing projects will do you absolutely no good. JPMC managers should be jailed for harassment.
