Pros

Big company with a LOT of systems/servers and teams, constantly upgrading to latest technology and hardware. Many people were able to move horizontally.

Cons

As a bank, IT is not the core of its business, therefore development teams have many junior members, with high rotation. Tendency to have teams with duplicated tasks, and managers trying to keep that statu quo, just to have more people within them.

Pros

Great collaboration between work groups. There used to be room for advancement and diversity in the workplace.

Cons

Lack of job security for several years culminating in a layoff after nearly 3 decades with the firm. Like many places, benefits, raises, and advancement opportunities diminished over time as the firm decided to offshore roles.
