      Pros

      I had a great direct manager, which made my tenure at Barclays very rewarding. There is plenty of interesting and rewarding word to do.

      Cons

      It is possible to get buried behind an incompetent manager from whom there is no escape but to leave.

      Nice place for retirement but limited career progression

      Pros

      Barclays is a plc with work life balance and excellent benefits in terms of dental and car park services. The overall package to start work in Barclays are attractive as well. They emphasize on retaining staff and provide courses.

      Cons

      In Asia, most of the work in Barclays are processing jobs and this has limited value add to individual. Even for work mobility, there is limited areas which you can go to. Unless you are in your retiring mood or you are a parent who focus on balanced lifestyle, this is not a place for career advancement nor add value to your employability.
