    Deutsche Bank sacks British boss John Cryan after years of losses - BBC News
    New CEO will mean some potential new opportunity in IT for contractors once the new management team understand a little about the situation here. Give it 2-3 months I think you will see a few decent paying roles as one of the previous problems was the massive IT cuts meant no way to save money & move forward as the previous now axed himself CEO thought losing thousands of staff was the answer! They need to modernise which cost lots of money especially as their IT budgets have been cut to the bone for years that means they will sooner or later have to pay the going rate!!

      I love it - Paying people 600 a day is cutting to the bone

      Try cutting it to 60 a day and see how it means to be to the bone

        It is in the context of it creating a brain drain as good people leave for better paying roles and others get cut whether they like it or not.

            Don't think I've worked anywhere where there is a single sweeping culture across the organisation, always differed from the various business units/physical offices. Big banks in particular, where typically I've seen Investment business units work every given hour and nobody flinched until 7pm yet in the same bank within Retail there's puffs of smoke at 5pm.

            Now I may or may not have experience of working in said bank in OPs title but I would say this bank is a little more aggressive than most...

                They've cut through that now.
