1.Good company to learn latest tech stack.
2. Provides learning opportunities with udemy licenses, etc for free.
3. More number of leaves when compared with peers
4. Free transportation to/from nodal points.
5. Great ambiance in office
Dislikes
No recognition. No matter how hard you work and contribute for a project, at the end you will be judged based on the number of BU level KTs that you give. Manager is a puppet to the Singapore team. Some Singapore team members who have zero technical knowledge also dominate and judge the offshore tech team which is not fair. Providesspecial cash award to some people and pays that amount in multiple trunches in the next year to trap employees not to leave the company. This will not be included in your CTC components list at all. Tight deadlines with less number of resources causes less work life balance at DBS. No testers at all. Developers must work on testing and also on prod deployments. Worst release process which is not at all developer friendly....Read More

Despite having more number of leaves, there is no work life balance at DBS due to tight deadlines with very less number of resources.

Line manager is everything, he decides your rating, increment, bonus. HR is just a yes man to whatever reporting manager says.
Lot of good policies on paper but at ground level not much.

Good Job security, good place to learn but not earn. Mostly weekend working is not there if you are capable.
Dislikes
Past 2 years they have bulk hired like service based companies and these senior officers and analyst performance is also like tcs, infosys hcl and ibm. Most of them are always taking breaks in groups and don't take responsibility. Disadvantages of hiring junior all Telugu only. Some of these have 2 yrs experience and still cannot write a SpringBoot application.

For a fresher this is the best company, but moving onto next few years after will be challenging to cope up with DBS work culture.
Dislikes
Doesn't give enough time for a developer, will be hard to deliver quality products. Also we stick up with same project when we start and will be very difficult to switch between projects as managers doesn't let you go or want to give up you from the project

DBS is an organisation where it’s fully compliance driven and technology based.
Dislikes
There is partiality between different workstations. Branch have different work culture and CO/RO have different work cultures. In fact there is no benefit, performance recognition, appraisals, promotions, career upgradation, work life balance for branch banking staffs. Whereas it completely enjoyed on all above grounds for non branch banking staffs.
