Pros

- Strong company culture with plenty of social events, including breakfasts, bi-monthly lunches, celebration cakes, and board game nights. - Great team members who are supportive and collaborative. - A new manager who is accommodating and supportive, fostering a positive work environment. - Good collaboration with external departmenets especially Citco Bank.

Cons

- Initial onboarding was stressful due to the manager forgetting to register me, which delayed equipment and onboarding setup. - Office attendance policy inconsistency: initial agreement for once-a-week attendance changed to twice-a-week, despite verbal recruiter confirmation. - Limited salary increase of only 1% during a period of 6% inflation. - Previous manager was unsupportive and rejected a sick day request.

Pros

Its best to work here for a few years and gain experience elsewhere.

Cons

Company went from 2 days on-site to now 3 days on-site, i dont mind it but this company has low morale and all the employees are sick of this place now. If you want a high salary but no opportunity to advance this is the place for you. 80% of the company is senior level and no room for growth or promotional opportunities.
