One bank’s culture is other’s pit

Rolling stones do gather mass these days. Frequent rollers gain much more.

That’s the reason people roll out of one particular workplace to another. That reason of getting a fatter packet. That reason of a year’s experience is considered great by the other workplace, especially banks. Any experience in banking is good for the next job!

So, if experience helps, how does the culture affects one’s opportunities?

Here is it..

HDFC Bank’s HR Head Mandeep Maitra, opens a Pandora’s box!

Talking about a large-scale exodus of staff from ICICI Bank to HDFC Bank, the latter’s HR Head Mandeep Maitra said in a recent interview to a magazine: “Of course, the first thing I ask is ‘how many of you are from ICICI Bank? I do not want that culture out here.”

Taking exception to the comment, ICICI Bank has issued a notice to Maitra at her residence address, while asking her to tender a private apology to it.

Of course, a ‘bad’ culture spreads faster than a ‘good’ culture. This is true to any industry, not just banking.
Instead of asking a question as to where did the candidate come from, the best option is to lead by example. That’s what the great leaders have done in the past!
