RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Deutsche Bank full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
The bank cares for its employees, which can be seen by the policies implemented for employee benefit. The environment is chilled out and you arnt scorned for asking any obvious questions. Transport facility saves travel stress and conveyance. Salary is above average compared to local competitors.
Cons
The company being top heavy, one needs to have patience to get promotions. 2 years is average tenure after which you get promoted.
Less visibility of how your work helps the company's top line or bottom line , thus affecting your motivation to work.Advice to Management
Promote internal transfers to keep employees involved and help them gain diverse skills

Good benefits, appreciates the audit department. They will actually pay to retain their talent and have good perks in the Wall Street office
Cons
Large firm, employees can be pretentious. Other than that it is a pretty enjoyable place to work. As long as you don't mind them in the news all the time.

The work environment and company benefits were outstanding.

Long work hours and internal systems were poor compared to competitors. Also, the pay was slightly lower, however the difference could be made with overtime.

Pros
Great Management Team in Jacksonville, Florida
Cons
Corporate expects you to work long days with no OT. They overload you and expect you to do it all in a day. When I went on as a permeant employee they forced me to show my W2 from previous jobs. Then low balled me in the pay claiming I will get it back in bonus. They offered me $57,000. Once I found another job I left. Doing same exact job now with less work making $68,000. My advice to new employees get your money up front for pay because bonus is non existent and you will be stuck with that pay for years.
Advice to Management
Stop low balling employees on pay because they started out temp. You loose talented employees that way.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Deutsche Bank full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Good benefits and seems like they pay okay. This is probably because of the German ties. At the end of the day, it's still a bank.
Cons
Fast paced but unorganized. Management was good with day to day - not so good with long term view.
Advice to Management
Find a better way to attract and retain young talent. I saw this place as a revolving door for 18 months. Sad.

Pros
People! People, People!
In my two and a half decade long career I've come across many huge companies as a consultant, of course, and would never choose to join. This on is different. The people here, each and every one, are just down to the ground decent human beings.
The company takes care of it own.
This is one of those families one normally never leaves.Cons
A long, hard, unforgiving stream of bad luck, fines and repetitional damage. And for our industry reputation is everything.
Also, despite the fact that all of us are great people we tend to collectively cause each-other unnecessary grief.
The upper management has a clear understanding and viable vision to what needs to be done to right the ship.
The contributing mice are all experts in their respective domains.
Nevertheless, top to bottom, the message is often lost or distorted in transaction or propagation.
The overall culture is healthy but the middle-tier mentality is archaic.
The core values campaign in well put together and slowly produces results - keyword is slowly.Advice to Management
1. Gut your middle-management!
2. A good general business manager will not always produce good results, especially in IT. For IT - hire from successful IT and preferably not from banking.
3. Same training for everyone is a waste of time and money. Leave core values and some regulatory training as is. Drop all else for IT and produce IT specific training.
4. IT is your greatest loss - treat it as a separate industry / company.Deutsche Bank 2017-05-27 18:43 PDT
