Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible working options and supportive management. Good exposure to innovative financial technologies and large-scale projects. Strong brand reputation, which adds value to career growth and future opportunities.

Cons

Career development opportunities can sometimes feel slow due to hierarchical structures and internal competition. Internal mobility processes may be lengthy and dependent on business needs rather than employee preferences. Training programs are available, but access to advanced opportunities may vary between teams and managers.
