Overall a good place to work, good experience.

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong, solid company. Many opportunities within.

Cons

It really matters which group you work for. Some groups are very disconnected from the positive culture DB tries to instill. I went through many different departments; my review would be much more negative, if I would not find a different opportunity (within the company).

DB is a wonderful place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Progression is on merit which is wonderful if you're good at what you do, also being able to move between divisions / offices is great. Personnally I have loved every minute of being at DB (currently for 5 years) and would recommend the bank to others. Hard work is required but hours are not as insane as other banks I have worked for (namely a large american one!)

Cons

Political environment and slow to get action quickly. PMO activity is limited to manager feedback only where I feel a full 360 review is a lot more beneficial to the overall picture.
