Pros

At the senior ranks you are given high autonomy.

Cons

Lack of culture. You can work at Barclays for years and not know your coworkers. Just another cog on the wheel. You are disposable. Expect your supervisor to be a spectator and solely rely on outside reviews, will not try to get to know you at all. One size fits all metrics are all that matters. Very “sterile” feeling around the office. You end up doing everyone else’s job given lack of accountability. Outdated tech/slow systems.
