      Everything good is bad again - Anonymous employee Barclays Employee Review

      Pros

      Decent salary, fun colleagues, casual dress, satisfactory benefits (tho not as such as two years ago as now my contribution is twice what it was).

      Cons

      No advancement opportunities, the "Agile" environment is a pressure cooker of chaos and finger pointing, work / life balance WAS superior - but now becoming another hoop to jump through so that you understand that if you want time off or need to work from home for a day, you should feel properly guilty about it.

      Thanks for taking the time to post a comment. Your use of capitals really implies that you are not feeling valued in your current role and hampered by the layer of management above you. I would really encourage you to raise your concerns with your senior management team as this is not the culture and environment that we need for our colleagues to flourish and be successful. Good luck

      Pros

      Workload is manageable they don’t put too much on you. Hybrid you come into office once a week.

      Cons

      Some managers are nice some are not and if you have a manager who doesn’t like you it will make the job stressful. If you get a zero for QA part of your bonus will be gone and if you get 3 within a 7 month period you will have to come into office 3 days a week and be on a final and will not get a bonus, bonuses could be higher in my opinion, if your not a good collector they could be as low as $500-$700 every 3 months if your a decent collector they could be $1500 every 3 months if your a good collector they could be $2250-$3375 every 3 months but the base pay isn’t high enough either it’s 50k to 56k all around just not enough money
