Good work life balance here
not much to say about
It staff member
- Health care premium paid totally by employer - Very good 401K match - Generous starting vacation time and holidays - Subsidized cafeteria - Free charging stations for EVs
- Very European focused, most managers in EU don't understand the US management styles and the dynamics of the USA job market - Lack of diversity in its US IT staff, majority of the staff are from South Asia, who -- no surprise - hire people like them - Stale and semi-competent senior level management in EU, a "la famiglia" that have been with the company for decades and have no idea about the real IT world and the dynamics of the US IT world - Hard to figure where the company wants to go after so much high turnover at the executive level, aggravated by almost constant re-organizations - Antiquated technology, no appetite for risk, while struggling to adopt cloud and Agile - Low base salary, eroding benefits, lower and lower bonuses, and almost no annual raises - Noisy open space office with people that do not respect the privacy of their colleagues
Field service technician
Good work environment nice team
Very hard to get promotion to a higher level
Product manager
Collaborative, innovative, lot's of freedom to work on high-impact projects
Pay is good, but not great
Swift fosters a diverse, inclusive, and highly collaborative environment where global teams work together on impactful financial industry initiatives.
Processes are a bit bureaucratic.
Programmer
Good benefit, medical, and higher salary
Bad management, and not really treat employee as company asset.
Software developer
Formerly a wonderful company with great benefits, still has a few unmatched benefits left. Medical insurance completely covered by the company. Business class travel if you are located in BE, for some in the USA, and practically none for the poor saps traveling from SE Asia.
The reviews of the past have always complained about the poor quality of line managers. This year, thanks to the “Agile transformation”, this camaraderie of incompetents have managed to pull themselves to higher levels of management and are driving out the talented few who are left.
Systems and applications support specialist
Many opportunities to learn here
Sometime too much dramas from the top management
Applications support
Great benefits and working culture Clear guidance for new joiner
Relatively old system compared to outside world Most of work is runtime
Software engineer
Work life balance, nice staff for the most part
Pay is not competitive at all
Test engineer
1. Good work life balance. 2. Flexi benefits and working hours is great 3. Very nice office environment and good colleagues 4. A lot of activities even wfh.
1. Lack of career growth, little room for promotion 2. Increment and Bonus is terrible , and sometimes not get any even you always on top. Make sure your salary is sufficient before you join. 3. Not appreciate people. They more believe on person who able to talk rather than work. 4. Micromanagement
Work life balance 2 days in office
Low basic salary Low bonus
Commercial manager
Good work life balance with reasonable salary
Poor leadership at the c suite level, directionless
Customer engineer
- The team is good, and there are many opportunities to get within the company.
The micro-management in this company is the worse: Use Sales-force to keep monitoring employees update works or not. Only care for results by numbers not quality.
Team lead
Great company, heavily invested in employees, flexible, collaborative, lots of growth potential, benefits
A bit slow, bureaucratic sometimes. Slowly changing
Full stack developer
Work life balance is good
Pay is average and good
Lots of events ran by the committees
If you want to learn the latest technologies, SWIFT is not really for you. A lot of teams are still using ancient technologies. Salary and benefits are quite mediocre, considering people in HQ/Belgium have so much more benefits compared to their KL peeps. KL office grows too fast that its culture becomes more and more corporate and rigid. A lot of people complained about their managers, especially those in Finance & Business. Too much politics and bad management. People in IT are slightly better.
Ux team lead
seems to be great place
difficult location different dept politics and wide gray area
People are nice overall, helpful
Very inconsistent, no good incentive
Business analyst
Great benefit, good coworkers/amazing place for connections
Salary is not competitive compared to other orgs in the industry, benefits make up for it though Management is not great You’ll be on the same level for decades HR won’t have your back when it comes to conflicts with your manager. Highly political environment They promote good work-life balance but there are instances that people get in trouble/ were let go after short term wellness leave
Business consultant
Full package with society car, insurance, many benifits
Hard to climb the ladder for younger folks
Project manager
Great people and good learning culture
Low pay and Very slow
Flexible hours , perks are okay but most of them are gimmicky
Promotions and increment is quite low especially since the new CEO took the mantle.
Flexible working hour, good benefit in some way
Some kind of micro manage
Devops engineer
Swift is a great place to work. The pay is good and benefits are amazing. You are surrounded by very intelligent people.
I have no cons. It was a good place to work
Global reach with diverse range of jobs and a focus on people. Able to move within the company and opportunities for advancement. Respectable pay. Great benefits, starting with 4-weeks vacation and comprehensive medical, dental, vision, plus 6% NEC and 3-5% match. Also, with an authentic world mission and proven excellence, this is a place where you can work and believe in what you do.
Sometimes there is some difficult red-tape, but that is with many established companies. SWIFT is a non-profit global co-operative, and this impacts in a major way the company's organisation from the board appointees to C-Level execs. This is a good thing, but it does lead to frequent organisational changes which are sometimes tough or disruptive. But SWIFT does put people first and there is good job security so these can be overcome.
Security operations
* Lots of snacks in office * Office is good * Get paid for overtime work * Benefits are good such as medical * Work is nothing as compare to SOC, because no one knows how to do it properly * Everyone chill out all day and do their personal stuffs * If you are a girl then it will be a best place for you, they treated as a princess (Dosen't matter you can work or not you will get business trips and many more)
* Working culture is so bad * In SOC people are with zero cyber security knowledge * Never able to handle serious situation comes in * There is no diversity in Team * management ask for suggestion but never agree with it, used their own tactics on imagination * Anyone can enter Cyber Security field if the person internal SWIFT employee and from any field, dont know what is the logic behind it * Very Selfish culture of management * You never get appriciated * You never respected as a Senior or Experienced person, management used their mind tactics * All the greatest experinced people left last year in 2019 due to management decisions
Work life balance is great Flexibility Stability Nixe office Good perks/benefits for employees Diversity
Micromanagement Yearly increment & bonus are average or a little below Limited career opportunities for some

Good company, good culture, work life balance
Not much opportunity for promotion, and career planning

Stick in the line or you can have big problem

Health Benefits, HR willing to accommodate.
Career growth, No Standards, Not open to latest tech.
Account manager
Good work life balance Good colleagues
Lack of direction Needs to adapt quicker

Manager
Nice org culture and people in general
Not so innovative business environment
Payment specialist
Work life balance is top tier here Very flexible working hour. You can clock in anytime and no one will bother. Flexi benefit can claim flights tickets, optics, and others.
They really discourage overwork. So don’t expect any OT. A bit slow career progression. But can jump internally for promotion.

Cannot find any cons yet
Agile coach
Strong initial focus on agile transformation, providing opportunities to apply coaching and scrum master skills. Collaborative teams that are open to learning and improvement. Support for continuous learning through training and certifications. Leadership is generally receptive to feedback on agile practices.
Agile maturity varies across squads, leading to inconsistencies in implementation. Some resistance to change from middle management slows down transformation. Expectations on job scope and role becomes vague across different departments. Limited clarity on long-term agile strategy and vision.
Senior systems engineer
Flexible and comfortable workplace Good office culture
Salary could not compete with market standard
Business development manager
- Great team - Work life balance
- Low pay - No growth
Data management specialist
Welfare was pretty good, though probably not the best.
Office Politics is out of line, could be felt running undercurrent, undermines everything positive about working there…
Talent acquisition specialist
hybrid, easy commute, opposite traffic.
Manager quit so Co-workers were acting they're managers...bullying and talking down to other co-worker, toxic working environment and managers didn't care after you report the issues, don't care about employees. Employees discriminated Contractors, etc. NOT a good place to work for long term.
