Hi Fishes,
I Will be Joining PWC AC B as SA2 on Sept 2,2022. Just want to know about Appraisal cycle. Is it Mid Year or Annual appraisal process. Also, will I be eligible for next appraisal cycle ? Tried asking the same Question to HR, but didn't get a proper response. She just mentioned as per company policy.

Hi Fishes, I have received an offer from Barclays for AVP position. But the role discussed during interview was for Tech Delivery Manager whereas the offer letter mentions it as Tech Delivery Lead. Can you guys please suggest if it is the same role or should I request recruiter to get the role updated? Moreover it would be great if any of you can shed some light on the prospects/challenges of this role based on your experiences. Barclays Barclays global service center

Culture has deteriorated in last few years, of course general opinion, differs from team to team. But still Barclays offers best work life balance (again 'Relatively'). Promotions honestly are hard especially VP onwards. You didn't ask but another factor to consider is learning and keeping in touch with latest tech, which is the biggest downside of Barclays. All the best!
Thank you this is very helpful!!

Barclays used to be a good place to work but since last 2 year things have drastically changed. Currently Barclays is on cost cutting exercises and will continue to do so till 2026. Culture, work life balance and Salary hikes all is changed post recent layoffs. Dont see anything changing until at least 2026.
What grade are they targeting most? Any idea?
Top performers will be rewarded well. But yes it’s not easy to stand out. Wlb and culture is second to none. Reasonable compensation (you will not feel exploited for sure). Promotions and growth for top performers shouldn’t be too difficult. The current cost cutting exercise does make things a little different however!
