Based on the most helpful WSO content, internal mobility within JPMorgan is generally encouraged and supported, especially if you are a strong performer. For example, in the "JP Morgan intern switching divisions" thread, it is mentioned that JPM actively promotes mobility and prefers employees to move internally rather than leave for another firm. Each group typically has junior and senior mobility chairs to facilitate such transitions, and your performance review plays a critical role in determining your chances.

Additionally, in the "JP Morgan IB Risk Exposed Part 2" thread, it is highlighted that JPM values internal mobility, and people frequently move between divisions, including from areas like IB Risk to IB Coverage or Equity Research. While there isn't specific mention of the Payments program, the general culture of mobility at JPM suggests that such a move could be possible if you demonstrate strong performance and network effectively within the firm.

If you're considering this, focus on excelling in your current role, building relationships with people in the target division, and leveraging the internal mobility resources JPM provides.

What about switching from payments program into global corporate banking ? In general, would you usually have to finish the 2 year program before any switches are even feasible?
