Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Saxo Bank full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Nothing to say, all depend on your luck and people around you, talents hardly matter here. If you are talented but don't no how to keep your management happy. Then no need to join. Only thing good in SAXO is furniture and picture they create very good organization. People who don know, then please check there financial reports.
Cons
This organization is same as you, playing slot machine in a casino, if you are lucky will get a jackpot. If not then be ready to spoil your future. It all depends upon who you supporting and the management you supporting is always there in power or not. Because management keeps on changing. And most important thing hire and fire.

Bus Driver being made COO, just using company resources as termite.. No work ethics. Full of politics. Low quality work, You may even lose the skills you have. Idiots running the company in India. Management in Denmark is ignorant.
