A company with too much politics, in a shrinking industry. Doesn't have a clear view and strategy to expand business. - Anonymous employee J.P. Morgan Employee Review

Pros

A good entry to the financial industry. Can get a lot of knowledge of how a financial institutions is run. Can work with very talented people.

Cons

Too many politics. A lot of favoritism and if you cannot get into the inner circle made by the management, you should expect to be treated badly.

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).
