Pros

The job was well paid and the work life balance was very amenable plus the facilities were generally speaking pretty good.

Cons

Finance was always an unpopular place to work, when I first joined there in 2005 I was shocked by how many of my colleagues seemed to absolutely detest the place. Over time I found out why. The environment put in place by senior management is appalling, bullying seems not only to be condoned but actively encouraged. People are undermined and insulted behind their back in a most primitive fashion. Consequently there is a constant revolving door of people and also a huge army of massively paid "consultants" from companies like Deloitte doing the most menial of tasks. Morale is horrendous.

Pros

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
