JPMorgan Chase Bank review- what else?
Pros: There are many opportunities within the company to reach out to regarding career opportunities. Generally, HR and the recruiters will aid internal employees, however, if the necessary experience is not there, they will let you know what to work on. 
The benefits outside of your salary is great. Perks such as free passes to venues in New York city are available. In addition, discounted pricing is given to broadway shows and other items such as cellphone service.
Generally, employees give due credit to each other when warranted, but can you really name a place that has no office politics?
You will never have to worry about communication between departments. There is always some type of meeting or teleconference taking place.
Cons: There is an excessive amount of meetings and teleconferences between lower level employees and upper management. The time that's allocated for the meetings can be better spent on existing workloads/projects.
When there is a hiring freeze for whatever reason, do not expect management to be concerned about your added workload and how many hours you're putting in after the bank closes.
Performance evaluations are done in an informal basis and do not seem to matter unless you're written up for poor performance.
Management will recognize every employee for their recent accomplishments, however, and this is a big however, if an employee comes up slightly short on one current assignment don't expect any sympathy.
