Pros

Good 401k match, nice facilities, 2 onsite free gyms, 2 onsite Starbucks, decent onsite food options, relatively low stress and low performance expectations (job security).

Cons

Low performance expectations which leads to team members not doing work. This situation is compounded by promotions at 2 year intervals regardless of performance (Highest performer on team gets promotions in the same duration as the lowest performer). It really sucks the desire to perform right out of you when you see a guy sleeping at his desk get promoted the same time as someone working 10 hour days. Also, the pay is currently below average for the city, by about 15%.

Pros

Life work balance, great benefit package and nice colleagues. The goal of the company is providing the best service to its members. So, they treat employees the best to encourage them to do the same for members.

Cons

Slow IT support, limited interactions with industry. Banking business is not as mature as insurance.
