Pros

- Okay pay - Matching contribution - Global opportunities - Shorter branch hours

Cons

- Toxic Culture. People avoiding responsibilities. Unsupportive Team. "It's not my job" - Outdated and non-user friendly technologies. - Only 'Talks' of caring customers but definitely 'numbers first' organization. - Mostly Chinese customers. If you don't speak Mandarin/Canto, you are not that important in the branch. - No sense of empowerment. Extreme amounts of red tapes, approvals, rules, and regulations. You just can't get things done by yourself or in time.

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.
