Pros

Colleagues are nice. I made friends. If you are interested in client relationship management, client onboarding, or AML compliance, this is a good starting point.

Anonymous employee

Pros

It looks like some of the teams are turning around because it looks like they got rid of at least 1 deluded head of department.

Cons

The managers can be quite delulu. One of them told me she can take me to fly to greater heights. Lucky I didnt listen, otherwise I would fly into the dustbin with her.
