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

No learnings at all. Work culture is miserable. Asking to not come on a public holiday leads to targetting by your boss. No compensation for working on holidays. One has to work for 10-12 hours Monday to Saturday. You are asked to do work outside bank guidelines and no risk allowance/security assurance is given.

They call it Sarkari work culture, colloquially, in Indian workplaces. Bureaucratic work culture, i.e. They have 22000+ Branches in all sorts of creepy places imaginable in the country, for the sake of being Banker to every Indian. Most employees are ordinary graduates with zero to minus pedigree and compensate for their lack of Brains by showing bossism. Worst part is that the organisation is filled to the very core with मादरचोद Biharis, and they are in the process of, and eventually completely destroy whatever good is left in it. Targets are reality of all jobs in this country, but SBI was earlier known for being a little better in terms of bending rules to achieve them. Targets of cross-selling: SBI Life, especially, are immense, and a terrible pain in the neck. They will make your life miserable if you don't give them SBI Life....Read More
