Pros

- work-life balance - good environment - hike and bonus are good in some years but recently they are cutting down the cost so for many employees zero hike and zero bonus for 2017.

Cons

- Politics, due to annual bonus thing a lot of politics is played. - Being a bank a lot of restriction, even new technologies comes late in use. - Micromanagement using sapience software which tracks time you spend on your pc is your personal work or official.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
