DB doing better than most of its peers at this point, but is that saying much?

Business Outlook

Pros

Deutsche Bank is an investment bank (as well as commercial in non-US regions) of rising global / local reputation and clout. As a result, employee quality will hopefully rise over time.

Cons

Business units are independent, hardened silos with little cross pollination of ideas and/or services that could be exploited for greater corporate gain. This is due to the highly political and territorial nature of businesses whose management were headhunted from other top tier banks (or integrated via acquisition) and are therefore deeply distrustful of the motives of colleagues whom they perceive as political adversaries contesting for the same pot of gold.

Business Outlook

Pros

I think one of the best (and potentially worse) reasons to work with Deutsch Bank is the conservative business model that seems to have assured we didn't get whacked like so many of our peers during the economic downturn. The other pluses are salaries, global environment and generally nice people

Cons

We are about 10 years behind other tech organizations on the street. Folks get beaten down by the fear of change into apathy. Policies and culture are too stringent - no room for creativity or an entrepreneurial mindset. It's not a fun place to work either as there is no sense of unified vision or camaraderie.
