Nothing to like really. You just get stuck in doing monotonous job

Dislikes

...erable. 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.

Dislikes

Deal with public at raw and other unscrupulous individuals. Complicated work process and procedures that are convoluted. Lack of standardisation in procedures and actions. Lack of Work-life Balance. Toxic and Unprofessional Work Culture. Prevalence of use of abusive language and incivil behaviour from higher officials and auditors. Environment of intimidation and suppression. Prevalence of trade unions and Netagiri. Arbitrariness and randoness in posting orders, transfers, promotions and allotment for foreign assignments. Nepotism, favouritism with lesser regard for merit. Adoption of a two tumbler system for identical cases. No learning in job with no leadership qualities earned. Sub-standard training programmes. Unsymmetrical work load with parity in entirely. Ownership feeling missing among higher officials. A Hard Working employee retirement goes unnoticed; whereas Inquilab Zindabad community (which disrupts Bank functioning and brings negative image) gets a warm send off from the top management.
