Cons
- Infrequently strict project deadlines managed to place a heavy load of pressure on the team, whereby time management and prioritization becomes vital.
- The management in the organization was at times problematic with regards to making decisions, this is because of the centralized structure which led to bureaucratic delays.
- Tightened integration of transversal groups, those functions usually being isolated.
I have got so much out of my Barclays internship through the pain and joy I have experienced. I was a part of influential projects and had the good fortune of working very hard together with many people that are gifted and talented expressly to one’s advantage on a personal and professional level.
Barclays Work Experience
I had the fortune to be a part of the [4 month and a 2 month as a full-time employee] of Barclays where I was a member of the software engineering unit.
I have always dreamed of working for a large organization such as Barclays bank. Therefore, I was very excited when I heard of the opportunity and immediately went for the position. This made me optimistic for the success ahead. While working here I developed many professional skills which I used on different projects, some of them attended with a number of challenges and learning chances.
