Thank you for calling the helpless desk.
Pros: It is hard to rate JPMorgan Chase as a whole.  The bank is broken down in several lines of businesses which treat their people differently.  If you are within the Investment Banking LOB, you will be treated fairly and paid appropriately.  You might find a similar experience if you work in Technology (accept for the helpdesk)
Cons: From the technology aspect; many jobs have been outsourced as a cost saving measure.  This is very prominent with support jobs.  Either you will fear your job will be moved to India, or you will have to deal with a huge language/cultural barrier with the people "supporting" you.

From a support aspect; we hire ANYONE.  I doubt they would be considered Senior management, but the brain trust in my little division of Technology feels they can hire anyone that can read.  This means you will be working along side of people who are not qualified to wash your car, let alone compete with you.  Sounds like a great way to gain a promotion until you realize your "team" is judged as a "team".
