Can we talk about the choke hold India and Indians have on the firm?

Pretty much the title. I know every group has their bad apples but seeing how many employees of other ethnicities (not even talking about white people here) have been disproportionality replaced by those from South Asian countries is absurd. Am I alone in thinking this?

Current pay level

I have worked at the bank since 2014. Several years ago I received a promotion to Sr. Lead Analytic Consultant. The raise that went with that promotion put me above the lower limits by just a couple thousand dollars. Currently that role is posting for $139K - $239K per year. After my increase this year I am still making below the lower limit. Is this normal? Are others experiencing this same issue? For background, I have been 'Meets' consistently over the last couple years but never missed an SLA or Training assignment.


The race to the bottom continues

They have always told us “our people are our most important asset”. What does it say when you sell your most important asset. You are in a race to the bottom. I hope they win. Get out while you can. My sympathies for all those who have been affected by this very poor business decision.


Belfast thinks they are safe. It’s all about the crossed fingers and let’s huddle together.

Just like so many other sites, they were given a feel good speech and feel all safe and sound. It’s all nice weather before the storm hits. The layoffs are a roving spot light. Sometimes it quickly passes over, sometimes it stops and stays for a while focusing on one area only. Right now the Belfast office feels safe but so does the docks before the ocean swells. Oh, there’s plans for Belfast alright, they’ve just not manifested yet.


Really this bad?

I’m honestly having some regret about taking this job, especially after finding this forum. I wish I had come across these comments before accepting the offer, but here I am. Is it really as bad as people describe?

I started in January and my role is remote, but based on what I’m reading, it sounds like that could change at any time. I also don’t really feel like part of the team yet. I assumed it was just because I’m still new, but now I’m starting to wonder if this is just the culture here.

Is this how most people feel? Is everyone just quietly checked out?
