Pros

You may get a false sense of belief that you are working for the world's largest financial institution.

Cons

Very bureaucratic, old-school kind of culture. Managers do not communicate across the board. I initially thought it was an issue with one specific manager. Over the years, I realized this was more of a company culture.

Advice to Management

Please teach your managers to communicate effectively with their direct reports.

I notice managers (company-wide) just keep quiet and fail to give honest and truthful feedback. It looks like managers lack training on how to implement a good feedback mechanism. I was very surprised how deep-rooted this culture was.
