Vice President at BNY Mellon
in Oak Brook, IL

What do you like about working at BNY Mellon?

"Nothing, at this time. It's a daily struggle-clients are strapped, so they treat you as though you work for them and not with them. Management micromanages, but at the same time is totally disengaged."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"In our office, be aware that there is no room for career growth. This may not be the case for all of BNY Mellon, but it is the case for Pershing LLC. Pershing will actively stop you from taking other roles within the firm if it is inconvenient to them."

What don't you like about working at BNY Mellon?

"The management in our subsidiary is challenging to work for. There is little recognition for achievements, not high enough morale in the office and each day is a struggle when one works for management who does not seem to care about what makes you more efficient and more excited to work, day to day."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"The CEO does a great job-but what do I know I'm not engaged on a meaningful level with the CEO. But in our office, I would work very hard to increase employee moral. Were constantly informed that we need to cut cost, which means no raises/bonuses. But what about compensation in other ways, ie making you feel valued, understanding how you need to be managed, treating you like an adult"
