Pros

- decent pay (but static) - good work/life balance - knowledgeable colleagues compared to some other banks in finance/risk roles

Cons

-too many MDs who run the place like mafia/gangs with some people getting preferential treatment - Too many project manager/change people with no domain knowledge- just moving information from one place to another - no promotions based on skills but rather other agendas such as gender-based, etc - MDs & Directors keep all the information to themselves to wield power over other employees - no clear plan on projects and too many IT support people with "Strat" titles who don't deliver much - probably intentional to keep their jobs

Pros

Very collaborative environment with good leadership in most divisions.
