Pros

Some good reasons are the money you get paid is quite nice. You are also not worrying about dealing with people in the US.

Cons

After working here I realize that the money that Barclays pays is very good. It however attracts the people who are only it for the money and not people who want to make a difference. The turnover rate here is very high so there is no real way to bond and form relationships. A lot of people are also from outsourcing companies and the level of sincerity to the job is very low.

Pros

Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

Cons

Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
