What is the radius of convergence for $\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}\frac{i^{j}+(-i)^{j}-i}{j!}z^{j}?$

How do I find the radius of convergence for

\begin{equation} \sum_{j=0}^{\infty}\frac{i^{j}+(-i)^{j}-i}{j!}z^{j} \end{equation}

At first I thought I could do some simplification using the fact that $i^{3}=-i$, and then using the ratio test, but I wasn't able to get anywhere from there. Should I instead use some kind of bound?

You could notice that the modulus of the numerator is bounded between two constants, so applying the formula for the radius of convergence reduces to take the $n$-th root of $n!$ and evaluate the limit to $+\infty$.
