Seems Rosier Than It Is

Take a look at some banks' recruitment ads and one will notice lots of perks being mentioned. However, there are some who say that it is done to lure people into working for them and after most have gone into the jobs and experienced it, they will eventually leave because it is not as rosy as it seems.
Then the ads come onto the media again, and once again, new fresh people are recruited and the cycle repeats itself over and over again.
This is the sad state of affairs nowadays. Compare the situation to 20 or 30 years ago when baby boomers worked for a company for their entire working lives. Back then, companies were not as cost conscious as they are now. Benefits were better.

Most people do not have a good impression of banks. Since Lehman, most people feel that banks are out to 'cheat' their hard-earned money. So to 'cheat' their staff is expected.
