Pros

- New CEO is trying to reverse the image of banking instilled by the previous leadership teams. - Opportunities to move around different areas of the bank locally and globally. - Great benefits. - DB encourage their employees to take part in lots of charitable work and allocate time for this.

Cons

- Too many politics. - Enourage competition between employees rather than creating synergy between them. - Too much focus on an individuals profile rather than ability to do the job. - Very slow paced in some areas. Work being repeated by numerous employees. Very inefficient. - High staff turnover rates. - Not a good place to progress fast. - A lot of unhappy people at the NCT levels. - A lot of employees at AVP level and above are not adding enough value to the business and nobody seems bothered. No wonder they have a cost problem.
