GREAT PLACE TO WORK IF YOU ARE THE COMPLACENT TYPE WHO DOESNT ROCK THE  BOAT, BAD PLACE FOR CREATIVE THINKING INNOVATORS
Pros: -Brand recognition
-Competitive starting salary and great benefits
-Diverse corporate culture 
-Great networking events/groups to join within the company
Cons: -Internal transfers are cumbersome, and you will have to wait till following February for salary adjustment - and even after the salary adjustment (in the event of promotion) you will be making far less than someone who was hired externally for that role. THIS STATEMENT HOLDS TRUE THROUGHOUT JP MORGAN CHASE.. regardless of your division 
- Red tape/bureaucracy, 
-Old fashioned, antiquated database systems in some divisions, limited technical support, lack of innovative thinking 
-Management doesn't like creative thinkers, old fashioned institutional setting, "if it isn't broke, don't fix it" mentality. 
-Limited funding for creative projects
