Pros

Working at such a big firm ensures your job security and robustness. Even when re-organization or internal changes happen, you would still be part of the community, which is nice.

They also have several internal groups and activities that employees can take part in and socialize.

Lots of platforms are provided for growing and improving one's skills!

Cons

Depending on the team you are working for, you might not fully grasp the meaningfulness of your job. Well, it is definitely meaningful; that's why they're funding it. However, it might not be as interesting, so pay attention to the project of the group that is hiring you.

I would say salary might be lower than at other banks such as Natwest, but I am not complaining about mine; I am still happy with it.

Internal mobility is rather hard, I would say. There are not many opportunities for juniors and associates to move and change teams. Most of the roles available are for senior engineers. This might encourage juniors to leave the firm if they're not happy with their current team.
