Pros

Great amenities and home office. Somewhat OK work-life balance depending on the role you land. If you are in CFO its a dumpster fire. Do not expect a work life balance if you do not make it your intent to have one by having boundaries. Set up boundaries or you will be working late.

Cons

Overachievers overcomplicating simple tasks and micromanaging. The company offers a pension that has a APY of 3%. Thats a little more than a bank account. Go chase after 15% yields on your own. 3% is not a benefit to tout. Avoid the CFO office that has about 1200-1500 people approx. Its a cluster everywhere and for the folks that don't have a dumpster fire, they hide the fact they don't so as to not have work piled on them.

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.
