Pros

New office is nice. Encourages internal movement.

Cons

-Pay is low compared to the market and upon multiple meetings to discuss unhappiness across the department, management concluded that we must 'do more with less'. - - - No effort done to increase resources, just hiring more offshore with low quality work in work the onshore ppl have to clear their mess. -New senior management (heads) are always talking about improvements and achievements during meetings but nth has been done so far. Mind you, resource issues were raised as early as Jan 2021 but up till Q3 nothing was done, resulting in staff burnout and mass resignation. -Front office staff are also reasonable and rude, does not care about MO/BO lack of resources. Escalating to the department bosses just for little issues and sometimes even forcing staff to work till ungodly hours while they knock off early/have frequent coffee breaks.

Pros

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
