Focused on bureaucratic process. Very poor culture without any benefits to make up for. Spiteful people focused on internal lobbying games. Career progression is all as bad as in other reviews. HR is not your friend and extremely incapable of doing anything. Very tribal and harsh culture of abusing each other. Not transparent with lots of ethical problems internally. Salary is laughable. Lots of insecure people who know their career is over. Work life balance depends largely on department - investment department (somehow called ‘banking’) juniors end up working 16h+ for longer periods of time including weekends.
