Vantaggi
Prominent Investment Bank name that looks good on resume.
Svantaggi
Recent layoffs and cost cutting measures have contributed to extremely low morale and fear amongst employees. A lot of managers are taking advantage of that fear and contributing to depression and high stress levels. Below average pay, 1% raises are the norm and have not been given out in over 3 years. Very hard for employees to get things done because of the many levels of management. Lifers that do bare minimum work and are just sticking around until their time is up. Only very Senior Managers are promoted. Lots of very good loyal and hard working low level employees that have never been promoted and are invisible to Senior Management. All of the recent "employee advancement and diversification programs" are just to keep up appearances.
