Pros

A good company who can rapidly expand its footprint and provide employment at low cost labour.

Cons

Ongoing poor management • There is clear poor understanding and poor realistic calculation of the amount of time available in comparison to the workload that needs to be completed by individuals and team as a whole. • The amount of times where valid concerns/ issues have been (re)addressed to management and end up being dismissed is horrendous. • There is clear lack of 2 way feedback and professional skills. Management will refuse to address issue(s) for their personal benefit, leaving this at your own expense which also creates imbalance emotional power at workplace. • Management is incapable of multitasking or work out efficiently who has done what or when. This provides unfair working condition to employees/ team members where managers fail to recognise individuals’ true potentials and achievements, and individuals have to keep duplicating time and efforts when addressing matters or answering queries to managers. • Lack of diversity and understanding of various different background of people

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).
