If you're in an on call position, then it can be pretty bad while you're on call. If you dont have an on call position, its 8ish-5ish M-F. But the career progression is bad. The tech isn't anything special and because you're working in tech at a bank, you're a cost center so they will always want you to "do more with less."
WLB sucks. Hours are 8-6 and constant weekend supports. If you enjoy tech and freedom of tech stack don’t bother.
This has been my experience as well. The India working hours are equally bad or if not worse. I almost always have to stay till 9.30 pm every day. Even though we start the day late, it still sucks to lose evenings.

Tipping culture is really getting out of control! Waiter gave me ‘a look’ because I tipped her 10% for ‘BAD service!’

Where are you at? TC? In Texas I’ve not worked over 40 hours nor been called outside of working hours. But I’ve worked with teams in London/NYC/Mumbai that work 12-16hr days
Damn y’all hiring?
There’s a hiring spree in Texas.
