Pros
Getting paid and driving away from work.
Cons
Managers, micro management, sign in/sign out sheets, outdated software, gossip, back biting, below expectations "scapegoat" 10% policy, having to inform your managers if you're interviewing with another department within BNY, and much more. Hopefully your managers like you, if not you can kiss any chance of getting into another department goodbye, they will block you from being hired in other departments within the company. Don't let those meaningless 1 on 1 meetings with your managers fool you, be very cautious of what you say. They only care about themselves. The mandatory "Below Expectations" 10% policy, is when at least 1 person in your department is given a "below expectation" rating on their mid year and end year review. If you're doing everything right, you to can be cast into the below expectations category, no one is safe, unless you are apart of your managers "teacher's pet" club., then you don't have anything to worry about. They want you at work all day!!! So make sure to spend as much time with your children before you get to work, because you will be stuck at your desk for long periods of time. You're lucky if you eat lunch!
