Business Outlook
Pros
Stable, high salaries, fast-paced. It is a large company so lots of opportunity to move around. Good perks such as 401k matching, pension, vacation days, free museum access, etc. There's a surprising amount of independance of how to solve problems here.
Cons
It can be beurocratic and slow-to-act. Management ability varies widly. Deutsche Bank's corporate culture, at least in the New York region, was to be cowboys - we were encouraged to do whatever possible to get the job done as soon as possible. Later, after the Bankers' Trust/Alex Brown acquisition there was too much process. Only now are we starting to get a good balance.
