Collaborative and the best work environment!

Senior Financial Reporting Analyst (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - November 20, 2023

Very supportive work environment especially for new hires. People make it a joy to do the job. Hardwork is recognized and there is no barrier to communication with senior management.

Depends on your manager…

Analyst (Former Employee) - Tempe, AZ - November 20, 2023

Great benefits and time off. Not good work life balance. A lot of excel reports for someone who has specific skill set. Too much emphasis on diversity. Plenty of great ‘non diverse’ employees looked over to meet requirements.

Environment

Risk Analyst (Current Employee) - Chicago, IL - November 15, 2023

Overall, the environment and attitude is very positive. Everyone's looking to help and hear feedback. The more opportunities you're looking for the faster your career will continue to move upward.

Great place but zero work from home flexibility

Account Manager (Current Employee) - Chicago, IL - November 14, 2023

Great people but not much work/life balance. Pay seems to be on the lower side for industry. I would not recommend for people with young families. Great benefits and vacation time.

Good place to work

Associate (Current Employee) - Chicago, IL - November 13, 2023

I enjoy the culture at the company. Everyone is smart and welcoming, which fosters a more collaborative environment. Some of the facilities are a bit outdated, but overall, a solid experience.

Productive

Personal Banker (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - November 12, 2023

Great learning experience but management needs a lot of training and less micromanaging. Overall a productive day and good pay/benefits. Toughest part was working close to manager who micromanages you and underestimates your capacity.

Lots of overtime

Analyst (Former Employee) - Taguig City - November 8, 2023

Lots of overtime. Had to work almost 12 hours a day 4x a week. Can’t feel managers sympathy towards employees’ concern regarding overtime work. Feels like you’re a robot

They are old school. And if you enjoy striving for excellence in all that you do - you’ll fit right in.

Project Consultant (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - October 27, 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?The flexible. When I was done with my work for the day I could go. I didn’t have to sit around and wait until an exact time. During the winter months, if there was snow or rain and I didn’t feel like coming in, I worked from home and management was okay with that. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?The way they run things are unique. So a lot of times theirs is no rhyme or reason (and not something that you can utilize past experience to discern), it’s just the Northern way. It’s definitely baptism by fire there but if you’re resourceful you’ll be fine. Management definitely has their favorites.

No Holidays, you must file a leave if you want to have a Holiday. Fair Salary and Promoting Career Growth.

Analyst (Former Employee) - Taguig - October 19, 2023

No Holidays, you must file a leave if you want to have a Holiday. Overtime everyday since the company is understaff. My immediate supervisor is nice to me, same with my team. But the work is self is almost the same everyday, routinary and I had to do overtime almost everyday.

Big banks gonna big bank.

Senior Accountant (Current Employee) - Remote - October 16, 2023

Got hired a year ago fully remote. The department has taken a hardline stance against fully remote work, and it’s spooking those of us who were just hired. The work life balance is not prioritized and the technology is just awful. The pay is better than I expected though as is the PTO.

Review

Senior Analyst (Former Employee) - Bangalore - September 15, 2023

Compared to competitors pay and bonus is less for the work. If you are good to managers and team SME ‘s nod your head you will be promoted at the earliest. More then your knowledge and work your appearance matters.

Stable

Executive Assistant (Former Employee) - Chicago, IL - September 12, 2023

Stable place to work, great people, good benefits but kind of pricey for family insurance, wished management appreciated long standing employees. Felt like a number when I left.

Great Culture and Salary

Technical Coordinator (Current Employee) - Taguig City - September 6, 2023

Working in NT is really good because of their great culture wherein everyone will be heard. NT promotes healthy culture of feedback and condemns harassment (could be se*ual, vocal, written, hierarchical or authority). Salary is also good most especially for the technical coordinators.

Toxic team. Lacks support/training to new hires. Management bias.

Senior Position (Former Employee) - Bonifacio City - September 5, 2023

Toxic team. Lacks support/training to new hires but there is an expectation that you knew the process already, thus, you will be afraid to commit errors or even ask questions as you will be singled out during meetings or reprimanded in public. Flexible work schedule. Younger demographics. There is management bias. There is good/defined promotion every two years.
