BNY Mellon

"I worked with a great set of knowledgeable individuals however, I left due to extremely long hours and little to no promotion for those who truly work hard to produce accurate results."

"Yes I would tell another woman about working here it has opportunities "

"BNY released its 2021 list of Distinguished Engineers - and all of them were men. This says a lot about how they view their technical talent. If you are a female software developer, your contributions are likely to be taken for granted."

"Be prepared to need to advocate for yourself if you want to progress in your career or make more money. BNYM is more than happy to let you stay where you are with minimal to no raise for years."

"Generally, the firm is comfortable with women in support roles but sparse representation or opportunities in front office leadership roles."

"The culture was improving from women, but it there bro-culture is being allowed to return. In addition, I have seen on multiple occasions the HR department investigating managers who are are mentally harassing their directs, and no action is ever taken to aid those in the situation. It creates an uncomfortable environment and many people do not feel supported by HR, and feel they protect only the senior most people at the organization. Most people are reluctant to report HR issues as there is a fear of relation. As for inclusion, I still have people (not just women) tell me they feel uncomfortable saying they have a dependent that they need to take care of and stating if the have a disability. "

"Opportunities exist if you're a hard worker and make an effort to network and stay connected."

"This company has a ton of bureaucracy and they don't know how to get out of their own way. The vision from the top of the house rarely comes to fruition because the folks at the bottom aren't empowered to actually accomplish anything. "

"Don’t unless you need to work and get benefits. Not well compensated"

"The C-Suite are spoiled elitists. Everybody else are lackeys in the slave system of banking."

"I was offered the job based upon my appearance and they made that very clear to me. "

"Be prepared to constantly feel the need to prove yourself for advancement in this company. Until something changes, you will always be second to the male employees. "

"Education benefits and flexibility with work life balance are great perks."

"The medical benefits have gotten more expensive since I started working here."

"It's a great start... Definitely a chance to move up "

"Good place to work if you're not in a high paying/high stress role. "

"A female friendly company if you work in a support role. Not female friendly in management or leadership roles."

"Don't fool yourself into thinking you can succeed based on merit unless you are in one of the pink ghettos: HR or marketing. The number of high-level women execs who were "moved on" in the last couple of years leaves no doubt the men can't work with women."

"BNY Mellon tries to entice women with their "WIN" program, but consistently tampers program suggestions/topics to conform to the opinions of the c-suite audince largely comprised of cisgendered males. The consistent shut downs of all discussions regarding and surrounding gender-gap disparity are highly discouraging."

"Be realistic, there may be a trade off between high pay and generous benefits, look at the total comp package not just the $"

"HR at this company is about 80% female so it is quite empowering to be surrounded by so many strong women in executive leadership roles (within HR). It is a great company to work for with tremendous growth opportunity. However, outside of HR, the rest of the company is male-dominated, particularly in executive leadership and it is not very diverse. Maternity leave is generous compared to other companies nearby and other work-life balance options (such as onsite childcare, telecommuting, etc) are above average compared to other companies of similar size nearby."

"Definitely a boys club in certain departments but they are actively working on change"

"Back biting male dominated"

"Opportunities are more apt to be given to men over women. Women are in senior roles typically associated with females. Women are now also competing for sr positions with global resources available to work in the Us."

"Women do not tend to make it to the top of the ladder here.. It is an old boys club and the boys pull for the boys"

"Work hard, network, learn everything and know everyone. Stay honest. Learn to say No."

"Be bold give yourself the credit you deserve do not underestimate yourself"

"I started here after I had my first child and stayed through my second. Family leave and vacation here is great, there are some groups that are very supportive of a flexible work schedule. I support a male dominated business line and while individually I feel respected and valued I see underlying old boy's club mentalities, more so as I get closer to Senior Management. I think things are changing for the better but its a slow process."
