As a male who is committed to gender equality, I have noticed that men are treated significantly different than women. We are treated with more respect, make more money, are given priority office space, are allowed more flexibility in terms of work locations and schedule. Overall, if you are a man and work at the bank you have it pretty good. This is pretty ironic given the fact that the bank continues to make strong claims that they're "committed to women" (both internally and externally). If you are going to make that claim, and want to "be known for it," you should probably walk the walk so you can back it up. Actions speak louder than words.
Additionally, there is very, very little opportunity for growth. The organization is very flat and operates quite lean. Meaning there are few human resources to get things done. Frequently managers stay in their positions and do not get promoted and do not leave which means there is no opportunity to move up. Another impact of operating very lean is that there are EXTREMELY limited budgets for professional development and growth opportunities. Aside from the "internal learning opportunities" (which are pretty pathetic) good luck trying to get approval to attend any outside/industry conferences or events to help you better yourself, or god forbid bring leanings back to your position to drive ROI for the bank!!
Finally, technology. There isn't enough room or time to describe just how terrible it is. Imagine the way banks operated in the 1980's (in terms of systems and technology resources) and that is what the bank is currently working with.
