I interned at Barclays and it’s very team dependent like any other bank. I had an “ok” experience with my team not sure why people can generalize culture for such a large firm. I don’t think you’d see anything different at any other BB except maybe for Goldman. Industrials and tech are the only teams I know at Barclays that have “bad” culture but even tech is getting better b/c they have a new group head like 1.5yrs ago

 

tech group is sweaty, but wouldn't say bad culture. great group of juniors they just work very hard...

 

Why is a 32 year old VP even surfing this forum in the first place
