Pros

Salary is very good. Benefits are good. Life/work balance can be good, depends on your team. Honestly there are people who work there for 5, 10, 15 years so it can be a good career.

Cons

It really depends on teams, but in my experience it's really hard to get support from senior or peers, and if they help you they make sure it's tracked or can be ticked off a list of objectives to get promoted. There are good and bad people like everywhere, but the environment is not very collaborative. Several tech managers shouldn't manage people.

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).
