Overall Great Place to Work
Pros: -Amazing and motivating senior leaders.  
-Smartest and most strategic leadership at the senior levels. 
-Relatively generous benefit packages including pension, 5% 1:1 401k matches, annual 401k awards for certain salaries below limits, health care (while model changed to consumer driven two years ago it is still a good program), dental, eye and ability to earn free funds to ward healthcare each year by offering health incentives. 
-Great corporate citizens in local communities. 
-Innovative in new technologies. 
-Stable firm.
Cons: -Treatment of internal promotions is horrendous in regard to corresponding compensation. In almost a decade at Chase I have been promoted 5 times and a now in/above middle management and am severely 
-More mangers than not lack the values that are demanded and exhibited by our senior leaders, which leads to pockets all over the firm of weak and lacking leadership. Seems the further down you get the worse it is.  There are some GREAT managers and leaders, but harder to find.
-Too many leaders at lower levels  go with the status quo. 
-Too many leaders at lower levels do not stand up for their staff or what is RIGHT. Instead they elect to merely do what their manager says without fighting for what is right for their staff. Leadership courage is very rare at middle management.
