Pros

European bank culture. Some of the colleagues are ok to work with

Cons

Slow progression, stagnant growth especially with back office function. Very disappointing bonus even with good financial year- zero increment unless promotion year. The offering process is also not very pleasant. Hr likes to tell you that it is a market pay without disclosing the facts they are comparing with.
