      Barclay Bank in Delaware

      Pros

      Barclays Bank of Delaware does in fact pay very well in comparision to many other industries.

      Cons

      When you actually figure out the time required to be spent at work as well as the difficult environment the hourly wage comes out much less than expected. You are always having to do 200% with no down time and fire fighting instead of planning. Often encouragement to do more overtime and work is done with whips and bats instead of understanding that they have asked the same people to do 200% for the past 8 continious months..
