Pros

1. Looks great on a resume. 2. Co-workers are very knowledgeable and hard-working. 3. Learn alot quickly. 4. Decent salary and bonus. 5. Plenty of vacation and sick time. 6. Health and vision insurance are very good.

Cons

1. Work/life balance? Ha! 2. When you factor in total hours worked, pay per hour is probably below average. 3. Face time is an unwritten rule. Appears to be weighted equally to quality of work. 4. Overwhelming number of emails, many of which are repetitive. 5. Conference calls, conference calls, and more conference calls. 6. Not knowing what the rules of the game are; constantly-changing expectations are not disclosed until after the fact. 7. Extreme micromanagement from upper leves, not immediate manager.

Pros

I loved working at Chase in Home Equity and First Mortgage. Decent pay, decent managers that were supportive.

Cons

The business credit card department is an absolute nightmare - avoid! We got moved around due to housing market changes. Understandable but they also made it seem like it was going to be the best thing that could happen to us. Told us we wouldn’t be answering calls and then it was full blown call center. It was the literal worst. Most unorganized, unsupportive, dumpster fire of a department.
