Pros

CEO Noel Quinn is redeploying capital and resources where they generate the best returns - in Asia. Massive global bank but vast majority of profits are generated by the Asian operation.

Cons

The US operation is not fit for growth nor is it being asked to grow. Instead, it plods along - it’s bureaucratic and the US leadership is uninspiring.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
