WLB is subject to the team you are joining and how supportive people around you.

There will be days where you will struggle, as a bank there will be urgent deployments/ hot fixes / regulatory changes.
But I would say those are about 2 to 4 days a month , rest of the days should be good enough.

I rejoined Barclays only because of the WLB. During my tenure previously as well, I never noticed anyone struggling with WLB. But, that's just my perspective and WLB is anyways very subjective. :)

WLB is always good in barclays. Only if there is any serious production issue and u r responsible then you will be stressed. Otherwise it's like govt job . But you will be independent contributor
