Standard Chartered Global Business Services Sp. z o.o.

Standard Chartered Bank is the kind of company whose board of directors, faced with the task of climbing Mount Everest, hires bakers instead of professional climbers...because, after all, they also have legs and arms, so they should be able to climb Mount Everest. The company is in total chaos: - HR has constant and chronic problems in contact with "managers" of individual projects, - "project managers" have no idea about the rules and regulations of Polish labor law, and employees in individual projects are referred to as "resources", - the beginning of the project is a huge organizational chaos, - most often work in mixed teams: Polish, foreign (English, German, Portuguese, Dutch), - management is tragic, it is the so-called micromanagement, in fact, sometimes there is none, - access to individual tools is obtained only after repeated e-mails and notifications to management, similarly, it is difficult to get any information on assignment to a particular project, - project managers are not familiar with Polish and European labor law and are unable to properly plan the schedule so as not to violate labor law, -the management "style" provides for the creation of an unlimited number of tables to be filled in for each occasion. Of course, employees are forced to fill in these tables under any pretext: ->> a table of how many hours worked at night, a table of when you go on vacation, a table of schedules, a table of who has what accesses (here employees are forced to enter (sic!) themselves what they lack, managers from Standard chartered bank are simply so lazy that they are unable to manage the entire team, and they dump the simplest tasks on people working in operational positions). Of course, every time even on the same issue a new table is created which is saved in a totally random place in the cloud and, for example, in 2 days there is no access to it anymore because it was either deleted or moved to an unknown place. - "meetings" with the staff of Standard Chartered Bank do not make the slightest logical sense, because it is impossible to determine the answers to the simplest questions at them, let alone enforce specific actions on a given matter, in general, you can not go to them because the management of the UK will decide for you anyway because you are just a "resource". - Standard Chartered Bank company emphasizes that it is muli-cultural and respects minorities, but in fact the owners are very racist, all middle and senior positions, managers, team leaders, senior employees are occupied by people of foreign origin, trainers too. - known to everyone from other corporations, the platform with so-called "trainings" is available in all languages except Polish, of course. - labor correlations with people from Standard Chartered Bank are difficult for Europeans to bear, as it is a completely different culture from ours, - Standard Chartered Bank does not respect the labor laws of the European Union and the Polish Labor Law. An example of this is the company's blatant violation of paragraph 18, Art.1 and Article 157 of the European Union, which says that people of different sexes and different places of residence have the right to be treated in the same way, and if they work in the same way and do the same or very similar work they should be paid equally. The company pays more to people hired from the so-called "old EU" countries, to people from Eastern European countries paying 1/3 of what they should earn. - Correlations with employees whom the company sends on business trips to Europe are very difficult. These employees behave below any accepted social norms in Europe. They may shout at you, write insulting messages or even carry out harassment against you forcing you, for example, to work beyond the hours shown in the contract you signed. - The employees with whom you will be working boast that they are experts in every possible field and are able to solve even very complex problems very quickly, mentioning that they have also possessed all the possible certifications needed to do so. However, the truth turns out to be different. During the start of a project, people from Europe who often speak 2 or 3 languages are forced by management to conduct training or explain to UK employees what every word means, for example, in a project that has tools in Dutch. Interestingly, even after exhaustive training, UK employees are not able to consolidate the knowledge they have received and it happens very often that they repeatedly ask about the same problem literally every day, and the daily practice instead of trying after such training to solve tasks themselves, write a script, solve a problem, bombard them with questions so that you would be the one to give them the right solution right away. Do not expect any gratitude or even the word "thank you" from them, they have too big an EGO for that....
