Business Outlook

Pros

Nice colleagues, they usually hire the nicest people they can get, which makes the environment bearable Canteen is "OK", with loads of different options ( 90% very fatty, thou ) Good exposure to the financial market

Cons

Middle management has absolutely NO CLUE on how to manage people or knowledge of the best practices in the industry Irritating micro-management Lack of genuine interest for employee's growth - HR simply don't care The best thing you can learn going through the chaotic documentation is how NOT TO document anything People are encouraged to take long working hours, producing LOADS of poor quality output. Meritocracy doesn't really exist there - people are promoted for their looks and their ability to procrastinate on real issues
