Pros

Good remote working arrangements are available.

Cons

If there isn't a predefined set of processes and procedures, it doesn't get done. The company is paralyzed. No one is allowed (even senior managers) to react without proper approval.

Pros

Middle management generally understanding of employee's personal needs.

Cons

Collaboration between groups in the bank is very difficult to accomplish, and never possible in a timely manner. IT infrastructure fragmented across groups. Front office does not recognise the difficulties caused by the above.
