...BI is its HR section and due to this, the problems faced by employees get worse. Seniors often resort to verbal personal attacks, humiliate you publicly, decline your bills, stop your salary, etc. They make sure you are ostracized, from others. You are never granted leave. Asking for leave is like asking for parole as if you are incarcerated, and as with parole, your leaves are rejected. They will play mind games and they will stalk you, where you live, where you go, who you are talking to, whether you are leaving the place, and many more. Better not to work here, than get your confidence completely shattered. Hope it helps anybody reading.

...ances and deposits.No wonder compared to pvt banks,SBI share price is way below.But if you are good for nothing,with no prospects in life,or just want a job to pay the bills and put food on table,then go for it.

Dislikes

No infrastructure support.no manpower support.too much unionism.... deviation from banking.....there was a time when loan application rejected by sbi ,used to go to pvt banks.....now it's complete opposite.no more is sbi a preferred banker for many.....just take a sample of any middle class working population....they will invariably be banking with pvt banks.

Good work culture,colleagues are supportive and policies are transparent ,affords good salary with other perquisites. But work life balance is very poor. On the other hand there is huge and quick promotion opportunities. Over all it was an excellent experience of mine in SBI.

Dislikes
