Pros

NONE! Oh wait...they just got rid of the worst, most pompous executive. The old saying "what goes around, comes around" rings true thankfully!

Cons

Some of the dumbest people I have worked with in my career that has spanned 20 plus years in Financial Services. Everything is broken - Technology, processes, people. How about start with the golden rule - treat others as you would like to be treated. I knew there was a reason why I never opened a bank account here when I joined. I never trusted the company - and once you see behind the curtain....you might be ill.

Pros

Self-starters may thrive here, especially with recent turnover. In the near-term your technical leadership may be rewarded if you collaborate well with technical and business teams and navigate a still-fluid organization and process.

Cons

Like other financial services providers who use dated systems, technology, and process, you'll be buried for the next several years documenting existing systems and making them comply. A lucky few will get to experiment with new technology, but most of you may have your hands full just keeping things running and meeting short-term business needs. Lower your expectations about working on modern tech and making any major improvements, learn the business and systems, and put yourself in position to define and lead modernization in a few years.
