Pros

I can't come up with any.

Cons

Company is incredibly disorganized and ineffective even for a bureacracy although no one is held accountable. Managers scream and make employees uncomfortable preventing employees from bringing their whole self to work with no repercussions. Management claims there is a speak up culture but if you speak up you will be blackballed and retribution will be applied against you. Certain managers engage in discriminatory behavior covered up because they are high performers. Morale is very low although people are too afraid to say anything. Senior management is detached and has no interest in addressing any real issues. Technology is poor, Microsoft teams frequently crashes, equipment is defective and bank has a myriad of different antiquated systems running concurrently instead of upgrading their platform. Bank prefers to throw lavish parties instead of investing in technology and people.
