Credit Suisse Employer Reviews

Egos, poor talent management, too many layers of useless middlemen.

Great self development experience, teamwork, time management, experience with handling large excel spreadsheets, risk assessment experience through internal company audits, Developed ability to analyze and interpret annual financial reports of fortune 500 companies as well as bank and loan documentation

Learned many things technically and good management. Co workers are helpful but definitely have to stay long hours in case certain projects are to be delivered in short timelines.

Pretty good work environment but mostly an individual contributor. Must be able to be a self starter (which I like). Vastly different cultures depending on where you are. Not a great amount of knowledge sharing (typical in a large investment bank). In order to advance, you need to know the right people and ask at the right time. Large and slow (but – more... steady). – less

I was working as contractor for Credit Suisse. The atmosphere was very busy and hectic most days. Call volume was very high and work/life balance was not great because of around the clock shifts. Management could have been more effective. All my co-workers were very friendly. The company very supportive of diversity and culture.

Good place to work, great culture
Rewarding experience to work with smart people

Managed personal accounts for investment people and firms conducting telecommunication services. Shift work round the clock work. Worked with different types of people in person and over the phone. Great educational site to be with. Learned alot of new programs and useful tools.

I enjoyed my years at Credit Suisse, particularly my years as a Floor Coordinator. This role gave me my first opportunity to surpervise a large number of staff, a responsibility I enjoyed. Investment banking is a fascinating industry, and I was very fortunate to work with some brilliant minds.

As an Analyst, I worked with developers in the UAT and Production environments. I learned to understand what the business were and how to meet those needs. My co-workers were a pleasure to work for. We always worked as a team. The hardest part of the job was
seeing co-workers being outsourced. The most enjoyable part of the job was working on projects – more... and training users on various software. – less

Great benefits - health insurance, 401K, paid vacation, great work/life balance.

Very stressful environment - the majority of the members of the team that I worked with handled the stress well, with the exception of one overwhelmingly difficult personality.

Great finance experience. Part of Credit-Risk team. Its great experience and great team

Hearing about the failure rate of MBA's within the first 2 years

I really enjoyed this position. I worked for a team of financial advisors who never doubted my ability to comprehend the information that was necessary for this position.

I started as an assistant to the Floor operations manager, worked my way into the Graphics Department, then Research and Floow Support. A great place to grow

No work life balance, not what firm believes in. I think it was managment who put their own policies in place.

Learned a lot about electronic trading business

Co-workers were on the front office were great, but in group not so much.

hardest part of job was not being able to have work/life balance

Enjoyable part of job was the firm events that make – more... a difference in peoples lives – less

While there are some great people to work with at the RTP office, the management (in NY) has no care and compassion for the employees. There is also no long term strategy for the RTP office, which creates concern for career stability.

It is a solid company going through much transition.
The daily timelines are global in nature.
Deliverables move from region A to region B, while region A sleeps.
