Pros

Difficult to think of any. Free tea, coffee, sodas and a few snacks?

Cons

Senior management are unapproachable and arrogant and promote a culture of fear. Racism is regularly complained of in the KL office. Technology used is archaic, if you are just starting your IT career you wont learn anything cutting edge here. If you are based in the headquarters in Belgium you will have an unbelievably good salary and benefits package, as a result head office is full of deadwood who will not leave because its just way too comfortable. Meanwhile employees in other offices receive very poor benefits which are constantly being eroded every time management want to save a few $$$.

Pros

Lots of events ran by the committees

Cons

If you want to learn the latest technologies, SWIFT is not really for you. A lot of teams are still using ancient technologies. Salary and benefits are quite mediocre, considering people in HQ/Belgium have so much more benefits compared to their KL peeps. KL office grows too fast that its culture becomes more and more corporate and rigid. A lot of people complained about their managers, especially those in Finance & Business. Too much politics and bad management. People in IT are slightly better.

Pros

Great place to work with at start Good benefits Work from home Flexi hour

Cons

- Politics makes you lose your passion at work. Manager that only talk without action and produce mediocre quality work. Manager that has high ego and refuse to listen. And manager like this becomes favorite of upper management. - Work life balance really depends on the department. - not much appreciation from upper management - upper management are not approachable
