Pros
Pleasant physical spaces and a modern environment. Good working from home policy. Strong culture of togetherness from staff but thats driven by the feeling of strength in numbers .
Cons
A stressful, difficult working environment. Stale, pal male dominated workplace. High management turnover who bring in old friends sacked from other banks and then they fall out and more people are sacked. Middle management bullies on the fast track to the top because they are mentored by senior management bullies. Humiliating in jokes are seen as acceptable and funny, making a bullied man dress as a cleaner as punishment isn't funny. Not playing along with the bullying games means you're boring. Lip service paid to diversity but not being a male puts you at a disadvantage.
