Anyone working here Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) at NYC and can share feedback. How is the company to work at. How is the culture? How is the work life balance ? How good is the stability or are they known for lay offs ? Is time off frowned upon? Do they really offer hybrid model or expect all days to be in office
Their offer is too good to be true and has raised apprehensions

I was there for a few months this year but left because I wanted to grow. It's really slow but you can totally start a family. I saw myself retiring there, if I didn't dislike my team so much. My team didn't go into the office at all lol. The company is very slow to change and with new people coming in from big banks that want to bring change... there's tension. Keep your head down and no one will bother you and you'll do just fine. SMBC is at the end of the day a Japanese bank, so Japanese culture is pervasive and not for everyone. In Japan, they take care of their employees and you can see that in their benefits package, which is the best I've ever seen. They also didn't lay anyone off during the pandemic (see previous sentence). They believe in having a job for life, so Japanese tend to stay in one company and do rotations.

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience. Understanding that the degreed person committed to school and finished, yet that doesn't diminish what the not degreed has committed to and accomplished in their careers. This has to stop!
