If you want work/life balance work here. If you want to work on latest Technology look somewhere else.
Pros: - Great benefits and good pay 
- Amazing work/life balance (mostly will depend on your manager)
- Helpful people, although there will be exceptions just like any other place
- Internal mobility is good, although it never worked out for me because all the interesting things I wanted to work on (Tech wise) was either in New York or Texas.
Cons: - Promotions take a long time depending on what level you join. So make sure when you join the firm, you come in at a position you want to be at. Because you'll be there for a long time. I've seen people quit and come back after a few years just to get a higher position.

- If you're working for any of their Technology departments, you will not be working on the latest technologies. JPMC being such a large organization, implementing any technology takes FOREVER.  For example: It's 2019 and my team still supports 2008 servers for some projects. Even Microsoft doesn't support it anymore.

- There is a lot of bureaucracy and unnecessary paperwork that will get in your way. This will get really frustrating, really fast.
