Vantaggi
In an industry that has been brought to its knees over the past 1-2 years, JPM has withstood scrutiny and has emerged as one of the few remaining dominant players in the industry.
Svantaggi
I was in the retail banking segment of the business, where success is predicated on checking account relationships, overdraft protection, fee management, credit cards, etc. To me, this is an excellent opportunity to cut your teeth in sales, but not a promising long-term career path. Leadership likes to emphasize the size of JPM as an incredible opportunity for internal advancement, but I was rarely (if ever) spoken to about my next steps in the company. Rather, the retail side was considered an important, but wholly separate, aspect of the company.
