Sky is the limit in doing business . No resource crunch from sbi. Achieve target through innovative approach to business. Recognition comes easily after achieving or surpassing business targets.

Dislikes

The bosses depends heavily on their juniors in operational units to achieve business targets. This leads to oversupervision and suffocates the work and moral of workforce. Administrative over dependence to obtain results suffocates the business environment. The bosses should be given independent business targets to innovatively create and develop business. Instead the depend heavily on juniors to achieve business targets. At times the boss achievement is simply the achievement of his juniors. They only report the figures. They too should create, develop, innovate and pass on the leads created by them to do the business. The BM, RM, DGM, GM, CGM should interact directly with top business groups. They to should acquire and deepen, penetrative and develop business. They should be rated on this front also. And not only reporting and encouraging the business booked by their juniors. The parasites should be located and shown the door. They are the ones responsible for the low moral of the workforce. They follow too closely their junior operational staff for showing their own business growth. They only depend on passing discomfort to the juniors to achieve business results. Managerial initiatives are lacking. Overdependence on administration to achieve result is bad . Show Managerial skills, soft skills in developing business. All operational offices should close on time. No late works. Show your skills in finishing work on time. The offices which do not close on time should be asked to submit explanation....Read More

Really banker to every Indian. One gain experience in handling all kind of customer. Good Salary package compared to any other banking and financial institutions. Respect and status is incomparable. Tough but worth for career oriented candidates.

Dislikes

Challenges before a women employee and men is not the same in our society. Not every family support working women. To spread their wings and fulfill their dreams they faces many many hurdles. We cannot have rigid and common transfer policy for everyone. I have seen many women employee resigning due to this reason including me. Having work life balance is difficult for officer particularly.
