Thought this would be relevant here!
Same question for JP Morgan
Boring AFAIK.
The amount of chill is strongly correlated to the amount of time until bonus season.
I feel like the only bank that would treat their developers well is Capital One given their recent AWS push and aggressive engineering hiring
My employer treats devs surprisingly well. We don't use AWS, but we built our own.
TIL! That's great to hear in case I ever make the move to NYC
Depends on what is āChillā according to you. My case Iām enjoying the crazy flexibility! 3-4 days WFH a week (No I donāt need to take PERMISSION/INFORM my manager). Iām happy with 125K base in NJ as long as Iām spending enough time with my family. Just my view.
How many YoE? You can do a lot better in NJ.

The closer you are to front office the more money you make, and the more you gotta hustle. It can get pretty ridiculous at times.
Its 40 hrs but it is stressful due to the redundant paperwork and useless training. You don't do much current stuff. It will be tough for me to leave now.
It's chill. Work week is generally under 40 hours but if you want to grind I know people who do. TBH it is slow-paced and boring most of the time. Strict regulations, a lot of governance, redundant channels, bad change management are the root cause. Also at C1 with the cloud migration it is a free-for-all right now. So many teams working on the same stuff it is hard to stay motivated in your work, technology strategy is f'd at an enterprise level but this doesn't affect day-to-day work for devs. Since it's the wild west of tech transformation teams can choose whatever tech stack they want and everyone gravitates towards new and open-source stuff which is kind of cool, plus you have lots of downtime for learning what ever you want. Flex WFH & leave early without permission, it's just the culture + essentially infinite PTO as long as you don't abuse it. 2 YOE, 135k TC, DC Metro
Our tech strategy is f'd. Our executives quit
What's your location and base?
Depends on the team. Friends in SF in dev says high turn over, older frameworks, not much career progression, below market comp. Hours are reg
