Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn if willing to put in extra effort. Opportunities to work with teams among the region if given chance to involve in Group project. Global job relocation opportunities. Unlimited medical claim for both employee and dependants. 30 days annual leave.

Cons

Bad work culture as people unable to work and resolve issues as a team and not willing to take up responsibilities. Constant change in organisation structure. Have to adapt to fast changing in reporting manager and work relationships. Employment of management staffs are contract based. To show that they are competent and performing, lots of new products and campaigns are launched within unrealistic timelines. It stresses out almost every working level staffs and causes high turnover rate. Legacy issues popped up everywhere. Therefore requires lots of patience to get things right. The bank is not willing to invest in system enhancement and lots of processes involved to enhancement. Hence, businesses has to give up to change request and proceed with manual handling instead of automation. Loyalty/long service is not appreciate. Prefer to hiring new employees for higher position over growing existing employees.
