One of the best tech companies in Columbus
Pros: I worked in the Technology department and Chase is always looking to be innovative and be one of the leaders in the technology (especially financial) industry. That's one of the benefits of working for such a big, successful company.  There are also great opportunities for mobility since there are so many departments/groups. This past year it seems like they're trying to actually listen to employee feedback and make the work environment better. Working at Chase is also a great resume booster! All the companies in Columbus know that.
Cons: With any big company, there are some disadvantages. My biggest problem is the compensation process. It seems like individual performance reviews are taken into consideration and it just depends how the department does. There are also many people who are lazy and don't do much and get overpaid. I came in through Corporate Development Program out of college which was supposed to help provided training and resources to be successful, but instead it held me back from moving up within the company. If you apply for a job out of college instead of participating in the Corporate Development Program, you'll get paid more. I don't know if the program has gotten better since I went through it, but I sure hope so.
