Great company to work and learn from.
Pros: You will get to learn and touch different technologies. There are so many processes in place that its too hard to fail at your job. Vendor support is always available, JPMC offers access to pluralsight videos for free. Soft skills is very important in this company, so thats something that is picked up along the way. Pre covid, if the budget is there you have the opportunity to request offsite training. I got to attend vendor conventions representing JPMC. Vendors will throw goodies at you when they see you work this big company, vendors also took care of us by providing free lunch. Pay is good, so are benefits.
Cons: While the processes are good to adhere by, sometimes it makes it difficult to get your work done. Change management and incident managers are not technical, therefore it makes it a challenge to get your technical point across. If your someone who doesn't like talking to an audience, this will present challenges. Network team is flooded with tickets and user requests. Anytime something breaks, the network team is the first one to get called. The mind set in the technology space is that anytime something breaks "its the network".
