You don't know what you've got til it's gone.
Pros: Good salary, benefit package, coworkers.  Pretty good work/life balance.  Company name recognition is valuable.  If you can get in at one of the hubs, you'll have much more opportunity.
Cons: It's a bank.  These days, that's not a good thing.  Like lots of other folks, I got laid off.  I'd go back in a minute, if I had the opportunity. 

Limited openings in my city meant limited advancement potential and even less chance of being rehired once you're gone.  Difficulty in getting training approved when you're out of the loop.
