You will enjoy working with DB

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Deutsche Bank is a slow-growing bank, however, it has its own strategy to keep the strong market and financial positions in the market. you will enjoy and learn something from working inside. Meanwhile, the working environment is quite political, if you want to further develop you personal skills and control capabilities, DB is a place you should go for. The key point is that you need to speak out and be independent thinking.

Cons

So called " German mind set", very process oriented organization. you should be prepared to spend a lot of time in meetings and different engagements. so, don't let yourself be lost in the busy routine and keep focusing on the valuable measures.

DB has great work/life balance

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

The organization follows the European attitudes towards work life balance. Time off and flexible work schedules are usually not a problem. Most of the people are great to deal with.

Cons

Compensation is below market rate (at least in IT). Additionally, they are aggressively looking to outsource/off shore any thing they possible can. This leads to very poor moral and a feeling of just trying to get by day-to-day. For IT, the center of the universe is London, then Frankfurt, and finally NY. Get use to it.
