Pros

Steady work because they have no idea how to moderate what they are doing. Project start and run for years.

Cons

They continue to change middle to upper management. They will not higher people to replace the many that leave. The economy is good, the federal government gave the company a huge tax break but do they share the wealth with the employees, no. Instead the two percent raise and moderate bonus went even lower. They want to buy hardware, they need to replace 14 year old equipment. What more need to be said.

Pros

There is real opportunity for career and skill growth. The company runs short on head count, so people willing to take on more responsibilities have avenues to progress. However, you will need to force the issue for promotions & large salary increases after you prove your capabilities. Realistically it'll take an external counteroffer to move the needle.

Cons

It's a large bank and you're a number in the system. If your NPV is positive you'll stay, else you'll be laid off. This includes both scenarios you control and those you don't. Ex. You control your performance, in office time and networking You don't control if your location is a strategic growth site, if a major client goes with a competitor, or if you'd be impacted by a general company-wide layoff plan.
