I would describe my experience at J.P. Morgan to be different.
Pros: There are a myriad of opportunities globally within the firm.  It appears to be common to take advantage of opportunities across line of businesses.  Also, it is very common to communicate with colleagues across the globe (i.e.: London, Bangalore, Manila).  

People at J.P. Morgan also have a very deep knowledge regarding their respective industries.  The firm provides the resources needed to acquire industry knowledge (including competitor intellegence).
Cons: Improvement is needed in regards to process efficiencies.  Also, I believe that the firm should consider making a greater investment in the new hire on-boarding orientation & certain job-specific training (i.e.: organized job-specific training to ensure that new hires obtain the essential knowledge regarding the firm's systems, groups and processes).

Lastly, management should seriously consider treating employees with better respect and have an ear to hear employee feedback and consider them.
