Pros

Some great people to work with, really talented and motivated. The hours are very reasonable compared to other banks. Does have a good training budget, for IT and business related topics.

Cons

Does not seem to recognise hard work, company does not promote any career progression or mobility. Emphasis is gradually shifting from replacing permanent staff with contractors. The environment is becoming more and more political and petty post Credit Crunch and Euro crisis. Red tape is ever increasing.

Pros

The biggest draw of this company is its great vacation package. AVPs get 30 vacation days and VPs get 35 vacation days. This cannot be beat by any wall street company that I know of. People are very friendly and hardworking in the group that I'm working at.

Cons

Too much bureaucracy in the workplace which prevents productive work. Management does not listen to the opinions or suggestions of the employees.
