Barclays Response

That is a very disappointing review to read, definitely not the culture and environment we want to create for our colleagues. Your comments would suggest that you have not found the right team to be successful and develop your career. Whilst it is difficult to offer advice and support on this type of site, can I suggest that you keep your eye out for new roles that would offer you more opportunity and engagement. We actively promote and support internal mobility.
