Pros

You get a paycheck Some cool projects Not as demanding as agencies or consultant firms in some ways

Cons

Dumb product people make decisions but have no idea what design is and just do what the business people tell them No process or direction yet higher ups expect you to follow them Five day RTTO even though most of your meetings and teammates are in another state You're either replacing people with AI or you're the ones being replaced by AI Toxic culture, minor complaints or feedback can blow up into out of proportion panic for no reason Constant Micromanagement. Its not enough to do your job or even do your job well. I get that perception matters but here it seems like perception is all that matters.

Pros

Top tier company with growth opportunity

Cons

The expectation to work 40+ or passed your normal shift as an exempt employee was common among peers and management.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
