To give gifts to colleagues or not?

Hi everyone! Been lurking around here for quite some time. I'm a first yr S&T analyst at a BB, and I'll be having training soon outside my home country. I'm thinking about whether I should give a gift--just a little something to my colleagues once I get back on the desk. I'm not sure about the norm here. Thanks!
