Pros

International exposure to emerging market interesting and talented junior colleagues

Cons

- Managers do not care about juniors career progression and some do not have integrity - Work is repetitive once you understand it and lacks challenges, which means many works are highly AI replaceable - The quality of mid-management really varies, Some talented mid senior people are quiet while mediocre take the place. - Reacts slow to market and some red tapes - Not a resourceful bank in terms of reputation and benefits

We have been committed to developing an ever-expanding array of developmental opportunities and resources for all employees, especially within internal hiring opportunities, which has been a growth in recent years.
