Pros

Work life balance is great. Good for working ladies. Some policies are really good for employees. Infrastructure is good.

Cons

Can change their policies anytime. The moment a new senior manager/officer enters the organization, a whole set of new rules and regulations are introduced. And this is quite frequent. Very slow processes. Frustrating at times. You are supposed to 'code' even if there is no work just to make sure every resource is 'utilized' for 8 hours. Don't expect much liberty to actually develop some amazing code. You are mostly not expected to use your brain.

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
