Pros

A lot of good things here. Decent pay, good bonus, great financial services problems to solve and make an impact with your work in banking and consequently in business world. The management has amazing leaders at the top right from CEO to level 5. No wonder this company is growing leaps and bounds and making a big difference in financial services world.

Cons

Work timings - With the overlap needed to work with US team it means most teams work from 12 PM to 9 PM ...which means by the time you get home, family is sleeping. For some people it doesn't matter, for some it does...for those who it does, it will impact your life in a non-subtle way. Figure out how you want to deal with it before you join. It means for 5 days your evenings are toast. But on the other hand it gives a lot of time at the start of the day to pursue your interests but the family is hardly at home during that time. That has been the only 1 big single con with this job.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
