Pluspunten
The workforce is diverse, and energetic. The workload is heavy, so it keeps you busy. There a lot of knowledgeable colleagues, and the global aspect of ING provides a lot of opportunity to go beyond NY. In recent years, they are really motivated in employee development and short-term assignment in head office, but in NY it is just starting to take off. There are a lot of new initiatives being undertaking, and so it is an exciting time to become a part of an evolving business.
Minpunten
Could be a frustrating place to work in, as there is a lot of unnecessary red tape around processes. Decisions are top/down, with little opportunity for knowledgeable input or consensus. While benefits are very generous, with approx. twenty percent less than market rate, pay is dismal (but severances are generous); generally a bigger salary disparity between client facing and non-client facing areas compared with competitors. Bonus and raises are laughable. Seriously understaffed, resulting in increased workload.
