Pros

Good Bonus , it is outside ctc. Fixed pay, No variable component Goodies and RNR every quarter.

Cons

People work in silos. No Proper process, Everyone prefers to work 12 hrs rather than putting efforts to streamline process and get better results. No QA. I'm shocked that a banking giant like this doen't have a QA. Business Analysts are dummy and manager's ask us to adjust with them. No requirements are given to developers. Developers are expected to talk to clients(ops),create jira's and work and deliver to production, and If a developer does it he gets hike of 10-15%. This is easier said then done. To talk to ops and understand what they want is the biggest problem across the org structure. No flexibility in timings and no work from home. Not much projects in dot net technology. No appreciation if u learn and develop in new technology. U are only judged by your negotiation skills with ops. Not good growth for a developer. No knowledge sharing ,No documentation, Nill Team work,No Planning. Be ready to sit for 8-10 long hrs with unpredictable work.

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).
