A view from the middle

Vice president

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very dynamic organization- rapid pace of change and development. Very good at innovation. Led by a bunch of smart people specially on the glabal markets side. Good strategy to sustain in the long run.

Cons

Highly silo'ed environment- minimal cooperation when working on cross-divisional initiatives. Poor infrastructural and control platforms- chances of a Soc-gen like scenario are not remote. Not a very structured promotion process- possible to get windfall gains from one good year's performance without the ability to sustain that performance in the long run. Low on work-life balance. Center of power largely in Frankfurt, low influence/image iN US.

Good place to work but a lot of improvements are needed

Assistant vice president - technology

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Large organization which equally large resources at a Global level. Overall package is very attractive with most of the people in a good competitive spirit

Cons

Large organization with slow decision making and too many layers of management and too many decision makers. Simple decisions can take ages. That cost both time and money and more importantly frustration as progress in key areas is sometimes slow. The large grown of the bank over the last number of years was not followed by a similar drive to and streamline and have a global management structure with an easier decision matrix
