Caution! Changes ahead
Pros: Strong career development and internal mobility options for junior staff. 
Focus on quality customer service and regulatory compliance means you can work here knowing you are helping people - the company walks the walk when it comes to treating customers right, even if they mess up sometimes. 
If you are a scrum master, you can get a job very easily - they are desparate for them. Also for experience agile experts who can be coaches.
Cons: The majority of senior leadership is hired from outside the firm, especially in IT.  They say they are bringing in the best and brightest, but if the employees are so awesome, why can't you develop leaders internally? 
Chase is trying to do a lot of transformations, especially to become agile instead of waterfall. Poor business engagement for the first 2 years meant only dev teams changed and the surrounding and support processes didn't (no product owners in business). Now the business is on board, but there is little visible progress.  Some of the most senior IT leaders have announced that the PM, BA and QA job roles will be eliminated, but what happens to those employees is unclear. Between this and the various business changes happening, there is a general feeling of anxiety and instability.
