Sad place to be

Pros

It's a bank, there is some stability unless there is a major re-roganization. Some financial perks, but they are dissapearing fast.

Cons

Promotion is based on who you know and seniority, not on skills and results, as such, most people with skills and ambition move on, while only the ones who settle stay. Seriously incompetent people work alongside very competent people. Too much outsourcing, to the point where the bank's bottom line is impacted.

Pros

Multinational company that has a broad range of different sectors in the financial industry if you are willing to relocate .

Cons

Environment is not employee-focused. The bottom line is 90% of the focus. "Hybrid work schedule"= 1 remote day per week. Medical Insurance is costly. Wrong people in management roles. Change needs to occur. Technology is archaic.
