      A world-class bank with international opportunities for employees

      It project management
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Employees will have exposure to international opportunities, either through secondment or working with staff from other countries. IT department is well established that employees will be able to learn about standards, best practices as well as how a bank run. Usually IT professionals such as developers, BAs and PMs will be working on projects from all sizes ranging from under a million to over 20 millions.

      Cons

      As the organization is large, the opportunities for promotion within one country bank or Software Department is limited as staff then to stay in a position for a long time. Also, due to the complex working environment, there are a lot of procedures to follow for making even a small change.

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Good training opportunities and compensation for the role I perform, and a good spirit within the company. Well positioned to come out of the financial crisis strongly.

      Cons

      Working for a large company can make it difficult to completely understand the 'big picture' and what's going on, but this is simply part of the package of working for a multinational .
