Barclays Employee Reviews

Career progression doesn't exist. The company always prefers to hire someone from the outside rather than promoting someone within the team. All management are white, if you are not white, you have no chance for career advancement.

a lot of opportunties with stressed working environment

Vice President (Former Employee) - Hong Kong - July 7, 2014

It's usually long hour from 9am to 8pm and working under stressed environment. Month end, Quarter end and Year end might work till 9pm, or 10pm or even later. With the hard work, you will get alot of opportunties to learn different things thru job relocation and/or promotions. Management do value people by providing annual IFRS training and various product trainings.
