Pros

Looks nice in CV. Great place to start after graduation. Good work-life balance. Process-based company. If you are not completely incompetent, you will be promoted soon. If you stay for another year, you will be promoted again, unless there is a hiring freeze, transfer freeze, or whatever freeze.

Cons

It is a waste of time to spend more than 3-5 years there.

If you want band 8+ and a competitive salary, you have to stay a few years longer. Or, just change employers, and you'll get double the band 7 salary immediately.

Advice to Management

Good luck. Have fun. You won't fix the current mess anyway.
