Pros

Salary is higher than on the market. Clear possibilities for career growth. Сalm rhythm of work: management doesn't try to squeeze all the juice out of you to achieve its goals

Cons

Classical fintechs problems: - bureaucracy: you need million of requests to start working: to access to the environments or services, to install apps in your laptop - old tech-stack: you need to keep up with the current market by yourself if you don't want to loose the moment that your knolage is outdated - bank uses only well-proven tools - not so many projects to choose if your current project became booring
