Pros

Part of one of the world's largest financial organizations.

Global exposure - almost every project will have international clients.

Great facility in the heart of the city.

Number of employee engagement initiatives and great CSR activities.

Good work-life balance.

Cons

Being a bank – not the first to try cutting-edge technologies.

Learning opportunities may be limited. You may not get to work with the smartest brains.

Advice to Management

Bring in dynamic managers rather than following a career progression path of employees that stick with the firm for many years.

Begin 360-degree feedback and make this rating a part of a manager's appraisal process, so that it would require managers to hone good people management skills.
