Limited pay and compensation for a stressful job

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are comparable to other global banks. There is room for input, creativity, and initiative, but it is constrained.

Cons

Management is very close to the vest on everything. There is no transparency and everyone seems to silently claw their way through the hierarchy. There is a very oppressive atmosphere in operations departments. When things go wrong, there is absolutely zero support from line management and much less from upper management. Everyone is constantly on edge for no reason other than the culture of insecurity that is fomented by upper management.
