Pros

The Bank of New York MELLON is in the process of a tremendous face lift. The cultures of Mellon and BONY are completely different. I think the best of both worlds will prevail. Mellon has a focused business model and a young managment team ready to hammer it out. The Bank of New York brings seasoned vets into the mix to help with the intergration.

Cons

This past year we had to wait almost 10 months without getting any comissions. That's just ridiculous

Pros

Job only as good as immediate manager. Salary is Ok ish Benefit options are ok not great.

Cons

1) Retaliation is a way of life at this company going back to 2018 and becoming worse since 2) Mid level managers are very efficient at passively insulting the Teams they are responsible for. 3) It is nearly impossible to advance in the company. 4) When you try to post to another department - your Mid level manager will do the best to stop you from advancing. Some have close friends in HR that will even have you submit a new application in an attempt to accuse the other department of recruiting you. I have experienced this. 5) The only way to increase pay and experience is by leaving the company. 6) It use to be a culture of lets help others when there is a problem, now it is lets find who to blame for upper mangers rushing a project before all risks are identified. 7) If you are taking a new Job - professionally push for higher Salary once you are in raises will be very small.
