Pros

- Work Life balance OK if not on front office roles & General Inspection - Most managers respect employees - Realistic deadlines and objectives in business as usual - Well located in Paris - Pay is quite good if well negotiated at entry

Cons

- Too much salary gap between the old ones who got in during the golden age of banking and the 20 something - Difficult to go up the ladder since the bank fires almost no one thus the drawback is lack of opportunity - Salary increase without inflation won't go above 1% a year even with excellent evaluations, except if on front office role on a booming business
