Pros

Deutsche Bank has a structured Internship program that lets you learn and contribute at the same time. You are usually assigned a mentor who will assign you a project for the summer internship. You are given responsibilities you would normally have if you were working at DB which is great. Very smart people , very relaxed atmosphere my mentor was great to me even though he was quite senior in the bank so it was nice.

Cons

Competitive , friendly rivalry for top spots. I also think that the human resources department is lacking in terms of being co-ordinate in assessing new interns.

Pros

The clients and the deals we work on are quite nice. THere are many big names and headline making deals that make you feel part of the bigger wall street picture. Also the benefits such as healthcare and 401 K contributions are nice perks. Also good opportunities are available for global rotations as well as well as divisional cycles.

Cons

Work is very time consuming and demanding. 70 hous work week is normal. Intense pressure from seniors who are sometimes actually quite rude and inconsiderate. Covert racism and discrimination prevalent within the bank. Also, not enough feedback and support provided.

Pros

Tremendous opportunities for international postings and development of a global focus. Ego tripping strongly dis-incentivized. The company is more proactive in evaluating employee strenghts/interests and seeking out opportunities for development and that perfect next assignment.

Cons

Compensation structure and progression strangely rigid. The technology products can be somewhat outmoded, but are getting better. This may seem like a strange personal prejudice, but it's my contention that any organization that stubbornly refuses to move away from using Lotus Notes will never be the best at whatever it does -- we all have our litmus tests, I suppose.
