Pros

- good name - work can be interesting sometimes - good IT online training material and training sessions

Cons

- do not feel IT is being recognized by the bank or the business side (2nd/3rd class citizens) - software used is pretty outdated - maybe because of the regulations coming down now, there are now so many processes/procedures that take up a lot of our time - can get political sometimes - steps for promotion are not clear
