Hi, During my offer HR told me there will be yearly incentive payout which will be up to 12% of CTC, which won’t be mentioned in the offer letter but will be processed. How much percentage of this incentive do you usually get yearly for an average rating?
Also, in years without any promotion, with an average to good rating, how much yearly hike can be expected at JPMC?
Can someone clarify these, please? This will help me a lot in making the decision to join JPMC.

Hi,

Has anyone recently appeared for Round 3 in person for the SDE3 role at JPMC Bengaluru? Please share the agenda and details of the round? Was it technical/techno-managerial/behavioural?

First 2 rounds were virtual, have been asked to visit in person for Round 3.

As my current location and job location are different, I have requested the recruiter to schedule virtual.

Joined JPMC Bangalore back in April as an SDE2 / 601 Associate. Coming up on my first official year-end review process and wanted to understand the ground reality from people who have been around for a while.

wanted to understand if GS has any programs or policies that support employees who want to pursue higher studies, particularly an MBA.

I’m genuinely disappointed with what I’ve seen happening at JPMC Pune,

JPMC has always had a reputation for being a strong, process-driven global organization, but the culture in this unit feels very different from what many employees expect from Chase.
One of my biggest concerns is the leadership approach. A senior MD was brought into the organization with roughly 12 years of startup experience. Startup experience itself is not a problem, but the management style employees are experiencing appears extremely different from the governance, stability, transparency, and long-term thinking expected from a global bank like JPMorgan Chase.

There is also a growing perception among employees that a small circle of people with previous personal or regional connections — including several people associated with Bareilly — receive disproportionate support and influence. I cannot independently verify the reasoning behind individual hiring or promotion decisions, but when employees repeatedly see the same network being hired, supported, or placed into influential positions, it naturally raises concerns about favoritism and whether opportunities are genuinely merit-based.

At the same time, employees seem to be working under constant uncertainty. People are seeing restructuring, exits and layoffs frequently enough that instead of concentrating on engineering quality, innovation and customer outcomes, many are simply wondering who will be next.
That is not the culture people expect from JPMorgan Chase.
The questions senior global leadership should be asking are:
Are hiring and leadership appointments being reviewed independently?

Are personal networks influencing hiring, promotions or organizational decisions?
Are layoffs and performance exits being handled consistently and transparently?

Why is there such a strong perception of favoritism within parts of the Pune organization?
Are experienced engineers being retained, developed and treated fairly?

Is employee feedback actually reaching leadership outside the local management chain?
Is this leadership culture aligned with the values and governance standards of JPMorgan Chase?

This is exactly why senior JPMC leadership should conduct an independent review of the Pune organization.
Speak confidentially with current employees. Speak with people who recently left. Review hiring patterns, reporting structures, promotions, attrition, performance exits and layoffs. Look at whether unusually concentrated networks have developed around particular leaders.

If everything is fair, an independent review should demonstrate that clearly. If there are governance or culture problems, they should be corrected before they cause further damage to employee confidence and JPMC’s reputation.
A globally respected organization should not allow the culture of one office or one leadership group to undermine the reputation built by the wider company.
I would genuinely like to hear from other current or former JPMC Pune employees: have you observed similar issues, or has your experience been different?

It has been more than a month the hackathon got over (atleast in blr) and over about two weeks in hyd.. When should we expect the results? Will all the winning team members get the offer? What should we expect and how is the result communicated?
