Pros

offers a stable work environment with a clear structure and defined processes. It’s a good place to learn the basics of banking operations and gain exposure to regulatory frameworks. Teams are generally cooperative, and work-life balance is respected in most departments.

Cons

The culture is quite hierarchical and risk-averse, which limits innovation and personal initiative. Promotions can be slow and heavily dependent on internal politics. Some departments lack fresh leadership or vision, leading to stagnation and low motivation among employees.

Pros

I’m not sure if there’re any.

Cons

They put out their job advertisement in english but only hire Swedes or people who know swedish. Honestly in 2025 everyone in such institution knows english so their requirement doesn’t make any sense. They obviously discriminate against expats. If you email them in english enquiring about a role role, they’ll just ignore you. Ever heard about diversity and inclusion, SEB? Why bother to write advertisement in english at all?
