State Bank is a great place to work.
Internal processes needs to be simplified and should have more customer focus.
As a General Manager I was heading a Network of 450+ branches, team of 5000+ staff members and business of more than Rs 1.25 trillion.

A great organisation, big brand and a place where one can learn and home skills in almost all areas of traditional and modern banking. Opportunities to work in various geographical locations including Foreign soil.job security and reasonably good HR practices with lesser heirarical bottlenecks. Best bet if one wants to work in banking sector in India.
Compensation vis a vis the demands of job are not matching. Appraisal system is not objective and unique abilities of employee are not given proper weightage many a times. Selection for specialised training is given on pick and choose basis. Promotions and postings are heavily tilted in favour of staff posted at administrative offices.

A professional organisation with a lot of humane values.
Grooms primarily jack of all trades unless one is noticed by chance or has extraordinary capabilities.
I have worked across all verticals of SBI but mostly at operational assignments. I was neither posted at Corporate Centre nor I aspired to be posted there. To be very frank, I avoided that posting. I loved operational assignments and enjoyed working.

Some flatter type officers misuse their powers and as a controllers destroy branches and defame the branch head/ staff. Top management trusts such flatters and punishes the branch head/ staff which creates frustrations and bank suffers losses. Top management should make an unbiased enquiry before punishing officers.

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.
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.

No Work Life Balance Management just works for numbers - Only HR Policies are in books. Rest you are not considered as a human. The only thing that matters to management is their numbers should add up, you do right practices or wrong, no one cares

SBI is the organisation which has fulfilled all my goals of life. It helped me to o build wealth as well as took care of family by providing concessional loans to build house, purchase car, children's education, medical benefits and last but not the least to get me my life partner.
A few people/bosses come in your life who can make and break you. I had a mentor who shaped me and my career but on the other side in last years I got a horrible boss who was discriminate and ruined the remaining career and promotions. Bank should take care of such people also.

Horrible work culture. Too much internal politics. People who don't work re appraised well and people who work hard are appraised badly, and have to bear lots of criticism. Seniors don't have any idea about the reality of ground level and force unethical practices for personal gains. People who oppose this are publically humiliated and instructed to resign. Seniors have no working knowledge of how the softwares work, and if some do do, then they refused to share their knowledge with others. It is the worst workplace I have ever worked in. I would not wish this kind of working environment to my worst enemy....Read More
