      Business Outlook

      Pros

      good juniors who are unfortunately overworked and not cared for at all

      Cons

      Sweatshop with an awful culture and generally unremarkable people. Never been in such a hierarchical place with so much fear used to control.

      Pockets of greatness but complete lack of work life balance

      Vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pays well compared to other banks for my position Good, competent junior and peer level colleagues and great team atmosphere in our area Varied work and good exposure as constantly need to get stuck in and roll sleeves up due to lack of resources Autonomy in day to day work

      Cons

      Extremely political, senior manager in our area is incompetent and bullies anyone that challenge the status quo Expected to work long hours consistently and be available even if on holiday Lack of resources, team is revolving door No development or career discussions, one to ones with manager is extremely as-hoc Lengthy interview process where role is sold as more senior than what you then end up doing in reality, potential for ruining your career
