Pros

The salary/benefits are pretty good given that it's a mid-level job (5-7 years of experience). They offer some folks a remote work option which is nice to see as other banks have quit doing that.

Cons

The HR process there is a disaster. After receiving an offer, I had to call the recruiter multiple times over a 4 week period asking where the offer documents were. Onboarding is another disaster. I spent the first two weeks without an email address...which is bizarre to me. I spent the first one month without Microsoft Teams. I then spent 3 months begging almost 10-15 diff IT admins for access to datasets and software. There were a few people on the team I directly worked with that gave off the attitude of "stop asking questions, just go do what I tell you to do" which is pretty demoralizing for new hires.
