Not a relaxed place

Pros

Nice employees (in general) People are helpful and friendly usually Good salaries Benefits are not bad Diverse nationalities Nice mix of ages and backgrounds

Cons

Too much politics Too many banker types Speaking your mind can be dangerous People sometimes step on each other Management unable to take criticism at times Not an obviously meritocratic organisation Grading system and salaries are a total mystery Little opportunity to develop unless you do it yourself Leadership vacuum No clear job security in recent years Bonus culture is corrosive Not a relaxed environment at all

Pros

Pay can be reasonable if negotiated well and early Ability to quickly change roles and expand experience in new functional areas Work life/balance is good

Cons

No annual cost of living pay rises - bonus is everything All about politics and who you know. No structured career path, HR very weak Hard to get anything changed, senior management are totally risk averse and ultra conservative - status quo rules

Pros

Tuition reimbursement is great ($5k/year), but they're changing the policy so that you have to stay at least 180 days after you finish the class, or you owe it back. Certification programs are encouraged, but not if you need a couple tries at an exam.

Cons

Super disorganized IT. Mostly outsourced and what is left is competing against itself. IT leadership is not technical and doesn't know how to actually get things done. Zero work-life balance.
