Pros

Super high quality people to work with. Competitive pay that keeps up with the market. A learning culture that actually tries to live up to its stated values.

Cons

Centralized decision-making leads to groupthink. Pockets of tech debt get worked around rather than fixed (in other words, they try to be a tech company, but are still a bank). Culture can be a bit homogeneous, which can make it harder for some to adapt. Forced ranking performance management system with no team/org level goals. Regulated industry with significant oversight.

Advice to Management

Get better at assimilating senior executives and acquired companies, particularly in tech.
