Reasonably, the firm is still doing a lot of things right. It's probably the best among banks on Wall St. It has a great work-from-home policy, based on which team you are. It's good for those who are looking for an easy path to retirement.
The business side does not look at technology favorably, but merely as a cost center.
Compensation is trending downwards and it's not a good place if you think money is important.
