Pros

Global company; lots of opportunities for movement; decent benefits; work/life balance is dependent on who your manager is; good sense on teamwork to get the job done.

Cons

Pay is significantly below market especially if you plan to stay with the company; every three years they take over another bank before they have their act together with the prior takeover; constant restructuring and layoffs while the big dogs take home huge bonuses.

Pros

I loved working at Chase in Home Equity and First Mortgage. Decent pay, decent managers that were supportive.

Cons

The business credit card department is an absolute nightmare - avoid! We got moved around due to housing market changes. Understandable but they also made it seem like it was going to be the best thing that could happen to us. Told us we wouldn’t be answering calls and then it was full blown call center. It was the literal worst. Most unorganized, unsupportive, dumpster fire of a department.
