Overall rating: 5/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Smart, focused, driven
Pros: The work-life balance is what you make it. The truth is that this company is full of very smart, very driven people. With that level of self-expectation it can be difficult to maintain a good work-life balance. But the opportunities are there.
Cons: Lot of "Type A" personalities in one organization. There can be friction at times, but on the whole, everyone works aggressively toward a common goal. If you're not accustomed to a fast paced, self driven environment, JPMorgan will catch you off guard. Everyone shows up to produce. If thats not for you, the company isn't for you.
