Pros

401k Pension Work Life Balance

Cons

Compensation /promotions are skewed towards sales, who are the least knowledgeable of the products they sell . Salaries and bonuses are way below other financial firms. Random layoffs, for decades long employees, during record profitability years is unacceptable.

Pros

Strong engineering culture with exposure to large-scale financial systems, distributed architecture, and production-critical platforms. Good opportunities to learn modern cloud, performance, and reliability engineering.

Cons

Bureaucracy and internal politics can sometimes outweigh technical merit. Employees who take ownership or challenge inefficiencies may face delayed recognition, unclear growth paths, and shifting expectations, leading to frustration and disengagement over time.
