MUFG reviews

Pay is below market (base and bonus). Non-Japanese employees are treated like dirt. The "training" is the worst on the street as they group everyone together from IBD to Operations so the material is only applicable for 5% of the analyst class (instead of financial modeling and series test review it's 2 weeks of lease accounting and a half-day of excel). No mentorship, witnessed numerous cases blatant gender and racial discrimination, and high turnover.

Management Stability and Expertise: A recent change in senior leadership has led to a significant and concerning loss of institutional knowledge and program maturity. Decision-making now appears to be heavily influenced by hierarchical structure rather than direct subject matter expertise in effective risk management and compliance testing. Communication Breakdown: The current leadership style lacks effective two-way feedback mechanisms. Communication is often authoritative, leading to an environment where analyst recommendations and critical findings are not adequately solicited or considered, resulting in a perceived stifling of professional input and a decline in employee value. Workload and Compensation Inconsistency: There is a pattern of setting unrealistic expectations for deadlines, which necessitates excessive working hours. Furthermore, management has demonstrated inconsistent adherence to compensation policies, specifically regarding honoring overtime pay after hours were explicitly requested and completed to meet deadlines. Talent Retention: There has been high turnover and demotion of knowledgeable, high-value leaders, indicating a strategy that prioritizes cost reduction over the long-term strategic stability and progression of the organization's risk function. - Current structure and the lack of training programs require top talent to be fully knowledgeable to perform the role.
