Work culture is excellent and professional. There are lot of opportunities internally to choose from and you can keep moving internally as well. Management was very supportive specially during covid times(the fact they tripled my insurance limit) in terms of need. Company will support employees to the extent you would not have believed. 12 years i was with organisation and i have almost zero complaints....Read More

Dislikes

Not much i would say. If you see comments from others saying there are less opportunities to learn , it means they havent explored the internal job openings. Benefits and others are as competent a corporate company can be.

1) Based on your team and position in the company, your work-life balance can vary. But in general it is good. You don't get pressured much because it is an insourcing firm and your clients are your internal stakeholders. 2) The outlook of the Group Management is Fabulous. They are pulling the right strings at the right time and setambitious yet achievable goals. But they don't transcend down to the lower rungs of the pyramid. It gets blocked by the fatty middle management layer and they are more of projections than actual actions. The Group is often blinded by the what happens in the upper layers of the pyramid. 3) The strides it made during the past 4 years, slow but there is progress without stagnation at least is some departments of the bank....Read More

Dislikes

1) You need to over communicate to ensure people fall in line with your expectations or delivery standards. 2) While the company claims to follow agile there is very slow traction in being agile. People still fall back into old ways of working because majority of the staffs are still Gen X's and it is more of survival and piggy backing to firm their positions a little longer. 3) Based on my experience, even if you are liked by superiors and contribute and outperform your peers, you need to play the waiting game to grow up the ladder or get promoted as they value your longevity more than your performance. 4) Salary is absolutely not competitive. It is like India is - The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. If you do a comparison you don't even fall in the market median bracket which is pathetic. They milk on people's ignorance on their market worth and value. 5) The external perspective of SCB GBS is not that great in India Chennai/Bangalore. Therefore when you want to look out, you rarely get calls from other players in the same sector. Maximum it would be Citi, HSBC, SG. This might not be true for SCB Singapore. 6) Senior folks have established their comfort couches in the company and it makes it difficult for talented junior folks to climb up....Read More

Period until 209 ....Work culture used to be good. Enjoyed working. Was purely merit based....

Dislikes

Has taken a back seat owing to back biting and dirty poitics. Human Resources is the worst as compared to other organizations.... And, this has been the root cause... Job function vis-a-visTraining is a total mismatch....
