1. SCB is quick to adapt to changes especially during covid period where they come out with polices protecting staff and deployment of WFH IT capabilities. 2.

Cons

1. Need to be able to present else it will be hard to find your voice 2. Long working hours depending on the markets you look after (SCB has a footprint of 50+ markets)
