Pros

- Good place to learn strict Change Management Process - Keeping pace with modern technology (although Long) - Great benefits - Good compensation

Cons

- Too much disparity between groups making employment experiences varied - If you like to move fast this is not the place for you. Being a bank holding company Morgan has lots of regulatory requirements making the environment slower paced - Some teams (not all) have poor work life balance

Pros

Good hard working employees that put their trust in their performance.

Cons

Extensive hires to meet Exec. Dir.'s agenda of having large team of reports enabling their advancement. This is followed by reduction in staff, thus presenting to Sr. Leadership cost savings to further support personal advancement agendas. No automation in mind because it would defeat building a large team. Too many unnecessary manual processes.
