Pros

Large global bank with potential for mobility

Cons

The culture and half hearted approach of management (especially Markets compliance) provides a very poor working environment. Everyone is scared of losing their jobs, therefore nothing changes, no challenge to the status quo. If the role will improve your CV go in with your eyes open to a very political and passive aggressive environment.
