Cronyism, bleeding of values over a very short time frame, poor decision making from senior management - Operations Analyst Standard Chartered Bank Employee Review

-Poor integration of technologies to support middle to back-end processes. resulting in unexplained manual workarounds -Cronyism is prevalent across the bank's middle to senior management -Culture and values have waned drastically despite regular "recommitments" expected from employees, all within a short span of 2 years -Inadequate compensation for entry level positions, incommensurable with efforts/skills required -Frequent shirking of responsibilities from highly concerned parties/units, resulting in preventable stand-stills -Bootlicking is rewarded greatly, as compared to pure and honest work with intention to improve -Lack of foresight involving big decisions- too often have we been making preventable losses despite early signs and warnings -Big foreigner base (lots of Indians) who come on board based on friendship rather than proven track records -Slow career progression and wage adjustment is pathetic
