Pros

Barclays is a place where junior people have opportunity to make big decisions. They let many young, relatively inexperienced people manage big teams.

Cons

This place is very poorly managed. There is no communication, no feedback, no career development, and no teamwork. They let very inexperienced people be in charge and there is a lot of delegation and not a lot of work in the mid and low level management.

Pros

The people there were fantastic, and the hours were very reasonable with most people leaving at about 5.30 each day. The office in Canary wharf was a nice location & it had a great staff restaurant

Cons

The work was a bit monotenous, and there wasnt many opportunites to move to different departments other than ops. senior management didnt keep you very updated on what was going on.
