Why J.P. Morgan?

There are 6 main reasons that people give for working at J.P. Morgan:

1. Scale. Join the integrated global bank that has been investing and growing in Asia since 1872.
   J.P. Morgan is one of the great names in global finance. This is the fully integrated bank that combines specialist local knowledge and strong working relationships with leading positions across the full spectrum of products and services. Our full-service platform can mobilize exactly the right mix of products, services and resources to meet any client need, anywhere in the world. This is an enterprise with the ambition, talent and resources to be the best - and you could be part of it.
   
2. Scope. Build your knowledge and develop your career in the world's richest learning environment.
   This business is uniquely equipped to provide the challenges, experiences and learning opportunities that are vital for accelerated personal growth. The development of talented people is fundamental to the strength of our franchise; this is why we are so actively committed to the concept of career mobility. People here often tackle many different kinds of roles during their careers, and we work hard to provide development paths that match the strengths and interests of the individual.
   
3. Innovation. Help shape new products, new partnerships, new opportunities and new ways of doing business.
   Entrepreneurial innovation has driven our business since the 19th century. After the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, J.P. Morgan underwrote the first dollar-denominated bonds issued by the Japanese government. In 2007, J.P. Morgan became the first foreign institution to win the right to incorporate locally in Beijing. J.P. Morgan continues to set the pace of progress: continuing investment in new products, markets and relationships opens up all kinds of opportunities for people who want to shape the future of global finance.
   
4. Inspiration. Tackle the most stimulating, important and rewarding challenges in global finance.
   Stimulating work brings job satisfaction, but it also fuels personal growth. 'Inspiring work' will mean different things in different parts of the bank. For some, it's the chance to work on the biggest equity deals in Asia's history; for others it might be developing the best cash management services in the region. Fulfillment at work is not just a question of deal flow or transactional volumes, but the quality of service we deliver to the client. The best career advice in the world is still, 'love what you do'.
   
5. Contribution. Make a personal impact on the world's most complex and fast-moving markets.
   The people who thrive at J.P. Morgan are often motivated by an instinctive drive to make a difference in the world. For those who like to be judged on results, Asia offers a particularly rich environment: flat structures and swift growth open up exciting opportunities for early responsibility, extended roles and cross-functional working. There are reputations to be made here and you can count on J.P. Morgan to celebrate and reward your contribution.
   
6. Culture. Embrace an ethical culture of teamwork, open communication, fair play and meritocracy.
   The culture of J.P. Morgan appeals to talented individuals with different strengths and perspectives who enjoy working together to achieve great things with clients. Mutual trust and respect grow naturally from openness and cooperation, and the same collaborative spirit flows into our client relationships. So it's not just the caliber of the people that makes J.P. Morgan special; the way we support and encourage each other is a vital part of our business model, too.
