Business outlook
Pros
Flexibility is decent with 2 days in office compared to 3+ for others, Whippany campus is modern. You can be exposed to a wide variety of technology. Good opportunities to migrate to other countries as well as Barclays has a global footprint.
Cons
Sudden layoffs are common. Senior people laid off while cheaper employees remain. Pay is below expectation and bonuses are spartan. I made more going somewhere else and my new employer isn’t even a bank. Whippany campus is nice but it is overcrowded. If you’re not in the right clique you’ll get thrown under the bus and possibly selected for layoffs. Lots of scandals and just plain screw ups including a past CEO who had ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
