Pros

Good office environment and benefits with JP and facilities on site. Good technology for working from home if you get a chance to.

Cons

Where do I start! Stupid number of pointless meetings. Bosses that have catch ups to see how you are and try to make you feel valued but it's just because they know you will probably leave due to the chaotic workload. Promises of promotion as a carrot. Poor people management. Bosses don't seem to care at all. Always taking time off and elbow their workload to you. It's all about sucking up and being the in person to get on. Talent not recognised. Terrible department and structure. Doubt I will see a year here.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
