Great place to work, but not without caveats.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very thin personal ranks allows for rapid advancement and assumption of increasing responsibility by young employees. Very intelligent people who have managed to avoid the majority of the pitfalls of the current credit crisis, by being on the right side of the ABS market and instead generating revenue from foreign exchange and rates departments. Stable banking (retail banking) platform also enables the bank to avoid funding issues and runs on money. Slightly lower returns on equity is acceptable if it enables the bank to be around in a year or two from now.

Cons

European bank with headquarters in London puts less focus/understanding on US activities than US based investment banks.

Business Outlook

Pros

a very prestigious name to have on your CV that carries a lot of weight in the industry. absolutely no stress at all and you won't have to take responsibilty for anything. definitely work there and get the experience.

Cons

having worked for a few banks in the technology department, deutsche bank has the most complicated, unintuitive and sprawling precess and bureaucracy you will ever come across and despite/beacause of all that administration, you still can't get anything done. the most common phrase you will hear is "chase it up". other banks simply don't work like this and its a bit of shock when you first get there. an example of the process is that its standard for a user account for a new starter to take between 3-5 weeks to be created. saw so many contractors coming in everyday for weeks on end sitting at desks doing nothing.
