Pros

There is only a handful of people who actually know what they are doing and are willing to help you succeed

Cons

It is demoralizing to see the company thrive while employee contributions go unseen and undercompensated. The workload and responsibility increases without any salary incentive making it a frustrating and demotivating environment. Work life balance can often become non existent

Pros

Access to lots of learning + experience of large codebase

Cons

Where do I start? Toxic environment for a graduate, minimal support, everyone is too busy/ looking out for themselves to give proper training to grads. Speed is prioritised over understanding and learning which was horrible as a grad- especially when the programme stated no prior experience required. Lots of micromanagement and very rigid + overly long processes required for simple code changes. There is also sexist managers and lots of ageism/ they only listen if you have a higher title than them. I would avoid BNY at all costs.
