      Pros and cons of working at Commonwealth Bank

      Pros

      • Great work-life balance, surrounded by brilliant people

      • It is a very big organisation and there are many opportunities outside your business area. There are secondment roles opportunities which give you a chance to try a role outside your speciality. The Graduate Program has provided excellent conferences all throughout the year which are very valuable for our professional development.

      • Great workplace culture with lots of career development. People are friendly and willing to help.

      • Flexible working arrangements Ability to move around to different teams Different initiatives that run in the bank, that you're able to join The number of networks you're able to make

      • A great place to work - there is flexible work culture, we are strongly focused on helping our community, plus the pay is good too :)

      Cons

        • Fairly strict graduate rotation policy, not full freedom of where we can rotate

        • Large company so at times it can be very difficult to get what you need quickly and hard to deliver projects unless you know the right people.

        • Red tape, things can sometimes move slowly Lots of meetings, some unnecessary

        • Remuneration compared to the market.

        • The legacy tech that slows down development can sometimes be frustrating/require workarounds.
