There is good risk culture in DBS bank, as they are willing to have case sharing across countries to arise staff's risk awareness. Besides, management encourage to use new technology to solve the problem.

Cons
insufficient manpower
Willing to learn, our team work ok. Work hard to get bonus and commission. Work on time, be a responsible person. I resign because I had family problem.
Help Company retrieve the sales target. I worked most happily in DBS.

I have made a lot of friends in this company and learnt a lot of practical skills here. I also learnt how to deal with different people by knowing their needs.
As a former channel product manager, the bank uses an agile approach in all of their product developments. The banks is catching up and as well known as the best digital bank in the bank, but it means a lot of non-office hour work. It is on record that 36 out of 52 weekends requires staff to work on channel testing and development work, that is 2/3 weekends of the year. This is the result of agile and aggressive approach to catch up to the big banks. A lot of the times it involves a fix of a new solution launch, which means the planning, testing and execution is not done thoroughly. Even compensation leaves can be taken, but the amount of work is just too much, as it will be waiting for you after your leave.

Everyone you work with deserves respect in the workplace, even when you differ on opinions. Look at each and every person as a vital member of the team.

The sales position was to achieve assigned sales target. The job required to interact with walk in customer. Working under intense pressure is what i have learnt from the job.
The working environment is great with supportive employees around.
Management allow bankers to have the freedom to build their business their own way, within the framework of the bank's vision.
Too many silo-minded colleagues, however that does not stop the business from flowing
CEO is very approachable and open to suggestions

Is a great place to network and increase your customer base.
You learn to tackle problems and handle different customer demand.
The hardest part is you have to work on weekends and holidays.
