Only got one downside? Come, let me share more.
1. Even in the banking industry, local banks like DBS are ranked behind some other regional banks. International and BBs dont even need to say.
2. Progression both in terms of career and salary is laughable (which explains why you need to wait to get promoted so that you have higher negotiating power with recruiters)
3. Not much transferable skills and you don’t really specialise and become an expert in a certain field/function.
4. They take almost everyone so essentially the market is flooded with ppl from SEED. Low barriers to entry and not much prestige.
5. Most of them are based in Changi.
Others, feel free to chime in.
