Pros

Decent hrs Respect work-life balance Probably friendlier environment compared to US banks

Cons

Major overhaul of infrastructure functions + too much staff turnover create uncertainties Demoralising for 'old crew' - e.g. promotion prospects, increased responsibilities Competitors tend to manage 'talent injection' and 'upgrades' in a more steady, evolutionary fashion rather than revolutionary
