Floundering organization

Pros

Not really any. Most investment banks at least have pay as a pro. Since Deutsche hasn't had a proper bonus points since 2008, they don't even have that.

Cons

Organization that has been continuously failing in slow motion for about 10 years. It's like the Knight in Monty Python who insists everything is a flesh would and just won't die. Massive layoffs every couple years...perpetually depleted bonus pools which are raided by the well connected leaving nothing for the rest of the company. Just look at their stock performance over and leadership turnover over the last decade. Says everything you need to know.

Pros

excellent bank to learn all the funky, high end wall street structure finance products and latest derivatives innovations......smart people around you, performance driven, nice office at ICC

Cons

unfortunately the DB systems have not catch up with their innovative products and also huge outsourcing move to Mumbai and Manila have curtailed any improvement for finance and ops...not a long term career place. High turnover problems in these outsourcing hubs did not improve the overall production process and working hours....onshore guys left to work harder to fix these issues and get charged back even more expensive for these hub services....where is the logic??
