Pros

1. Competitive package 2. Year end bonus based on performance 3. Decent work-life balance 4. Lot of different teams with options for mobility among them (after min. 2years)

Cons

1. Being a large company, there is lot of beuracracy. Could be a turn-off if you are coming from start-up or product company cultures. 2. All the shots are called from global locations like US, UK or HK. In India it is more like a service company culture. Your inputs are not valued. Just do as they want it... 3. Minimal to zero documentation. there is no practice of documentation in IBs ! Most of the tasks are business driven and very dynamic. Again if you are from product company culture, then it is a major culture change. 4. Slow in adopting latest technologies.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
