Pros
Pay & Benefits package is very good for Financial Services industry. Working with really smart IT people provides a challenging environment from which you can learn a great deal. Global footprint makes for a 21st century multi-cultural work environment. Emphasis on excellence and achievement causes one to reach for higher goals and achieve them.
Cons
Too many hours expected; the norm was 50-60 hrs a week. Senior Management had conflicting priorities i.e, everything is top priority. Management's time horizon was too short-term. For example, tasks that were know well in advance we only delegated at the last minute, due to poor planning and time management.
