Amongst big names that ive worked with, Barclays despite having its own big brand name, stands nowhere in comparison. The workplace is operated wholly and solely by Ops team, you dont even know who is your HR team or partner is. If you do not participate in their vicious circle or have a diff opinion, you are considered an outcast. This is the worst org I've ever worked with!

Work life balance is good along with good number of paid holidays and management actively encourages to take holidays. They constantly explore new ways to work.
Dislikes
The management keeps talking about gender equality but men still dominate the work scene and less opportunities for women and deserving candidates are either not given the right opportunity due to bias or insecurity.
The HR will low ball you for salary despite all hue and cry about pay parity and transparency.
They need to invest in operations and administration technology tools like JIRA etc to make processes more efficient....Read More

Dislikes
I work in Barclays LTS office, Pune.
GTIS in Barclays is the worst department to work with. I would suggest better to work with other departments rather than working in GTIS.
Appraisal and promotions are very less as compared to other departments.
During Diwali and Christmas as well management of GTIS gives nothing to it's employeesnor sweets nor gifts.
During year end review management has only one reason that company is in loss so less increment this year but people working in management get good humesha.
Every year we got to know the same reason from the management.
Very less bonus is given , in that too half of the bonus is deducted in Tax 🥺
Barclays GTIS is doing much of the cost cutting.
Office politics and feviritism is also the other problem here.
They give less respect for the people working for more than 10 years.
They get very less increment as compared to the one who are newly hired.
I have been working in Barclays for more than 10 years still my monthly in-hand salary is less than 1 lac which is so much disappointing to me.
Barclays values are just followed on paper and not in practical....Read More

The office space is good, work is intresting if your teams works on solving for core banking technologies, pay is average but if you bargain hard there is a chance they might stretch their budget. Team cultures is pretty laid back with middle aged folks who want to settle in their roles.
Dislikes
There's a fair amount of office politics, people usually settle into their role and don't adapt quickly to new technologies and being a bank innovative solutions take a back step and all the soltions have to be vetted for security approvals

Worst management, Noida management, no respect for their employees. Everything Noida management does for Pune location Barclays, all VP's , AVP's and trainers are corrupted and involved with each other for harrassing and targetting employees. Do not even think of going in Barclays as personal banker retail voice process. They will torture you utmost. Making you feel to leave organisation at any cost. Simply do buttering and l*ck there asa for promotion and staying there. Rebellions stay away....Read More

Nothing, the folks form other countries, especially UK are so racist, cannot withstand them. They hired me on permanent role but now asked me to leave, where as the contractors in uk are being extended, and the worst ever decision is made by another contractor in UK. Open racism’s.
Dislikes
Everything. People working for more then 10 to 15 years try to be your boss where as they don’t even know how to play an IC role. Wonder what’s wrong with the management, because the boss only knows how to please the super boss well.
