Pros

- Stubborn management - Uncompetitive pay - Bleaky benefits - 5 days in the office - Lots of legacy code and teammates who write instant legacy code

Cons

But being serious if you're not old and the best moments of your life are not work pizza parties try better than this. Though being serious it's impossible to get fired from here and you can easily turn this "opportunity" into a fake job and do slim to nothing. Though there is already abundance of people of this kind and you will run into them when you actually need to do something.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
