Good company, good people
People are intelligent and want to work on innovating (at least in my space).
Pay is decent and job security feels stable.
Good level of autonomy to work on projects.
Slow progression; it feels impossible to promote unless you are a social bug and in the right office.
Requirements for promotions change every year, and you aren't told what exactly changes. Your sponsors have to figure it out and try to go to bat for you.
It's a bank; it has its politics and corporate nature.
Location really makes or breaks your career growth. If you aren't brushing shoulders with higher leadership, it's really hard to get noticed and stand out amongst peers.
