Job security is one thing I like. The benefits are good medical ones. The culture is becoming bad now.Earlier the culture was good. Work life balance was important.But now...All they want to do it make you work and achieve some unachievable targets. No respect for Personal space or holidays.
The culture is degrading now.Earlier there was respect for people.Now No work life balance. Only business. nobody cares what happens to you,whether you eat or no.All they want is tobachieve unachievable targets.No respect for privacy or holidays.Only work.
No respect. Treated like machines without feelings.

I like about the brand and the most best thing and great support is bank has taken care of my entire medical expense and my salary pay with incentives even in this situation which i have to thank SCB for excellence...
Stress level has been increases to the core....there is no HR interaction with the front line to understand the ground... so line managers decision has become the final option and i don't feel that working for an international bank, have a feeling of working under a direct ownership company...
I am in my medical leave currently. Got heart attack and 5 stents has been implanted on 17th DEC 2020. over all experience on remuneration and health care side is good at SCB....but work life balance, employee relationship, work culture has worsened

I love the earlier culture where the business was harmonious and less invasive. When I joined I was excited to work in a MNC however within a year it changed and it started to become like any other private banks. Employee centricity was good in 2017 but since 2018 it has gone for a toss. You could find good leader who guide you in the initial stages and bring you up to speed. However if your manager is a crook who is only interested in the other gender then prefferencial treatment kicks in and you need to see other options out. The best thing about working here is the health insurance from SCB for employees is good unlimited coverage just submit the bills....Read More

Nothing. I have spend 8 yrs in cards department deferent segment in standard chartered. But nothing to get growth. I have joined which band still is same.. Any other organization is automatically increase.
So many people recruit in higher level from axis, icici, hdfc... This banks are is in mass marketing... Not on segment marketing... Unethical pressure build.. And things are there banks close his own products from third party... I will tell you this bank going on city bank way... Within 3 to 4 yrs sell his all segment to other bank

The banking industry is lucrative and plays an important role in our economy. It offers challenging roles and opportunities to develop skills and knowledge. The dynamic nature of the industry and its relevance in the economic scenario is why I want to pursue a career in the banking sector.
Once you've been in banking for a few years and have amassed big spending commitments, it's hard to find an alternative high paying career. People feel stuck. They can't even move to banking jobs in any more.

Company policies are followed in letter and spirit. Implementation of internal policies is done with utmost professionalism. Lot of check and balances are there so that there is no room to bypass such policies.
Personal growth, work life balance, remuneration as per market standards - these factors are not given slightest of importance by department heads. Lack of support from seniors and blame game when things go wrong. Internal politics has reached to the levels of toxicity. Some innocent employees are even victims of vendetta politics.
