From the development path, the business of the Information Department is closer to the core business of the bank, and it can develop in the direction of e-banking business manager, branch president and head office leader in the future.
From the point of working hours: the information department is busy and works overtime.
Technology department: biased towards technology, especially the maintenance of electronic equipment.
From the perspective of development path, it is difficult for the technical department to get in touch with the core business of the bank except for rotation, and it is difficult to develop upward.
As far as working hours are concerned, the technical department is not busy, working overtime is less, and the rest time can be guaranteed.
Big banks should pay more attention to information technology and have better development, but banks pay attention to compliance and may have many rules and regulations. If you can't accept the constraints, you should be unable to adapt to the work of the bank. If you have good conditions in all aspects, you can feel at home in the bank.
I. Head Office Level
The information technology department at the head office level is mainly responsible for the bank-wide information development planning and major application software development, data center (including disaster recovery center) management, computer site security and computer system maintenance, and equipment management of other departments at the same level (probably). The information technology department at this level needs a large number of scientific and technological talents related to computer technology (thousands of people in scale), and there are many things to do.
Second, the provincial branch level
The information technology department at this level is mainly responsible for the information development planning of this area, the normal operation of the network center, the secondary development or customization of the application software of the Head Office, the site security of the network center, the computer security management and the computer system maintenance of other departments at this level (probably). Information technology departments at this level need more professionals (100 or so) and can do more things.
Three. Sub-branches (including secondary branches)
Because banks have centralized data, sub-branches generally have only one network computer room at headquarters, and most of them have no information technology department. Instead, they merged their functions into other departments, leaving one or two technical posts without development tasks. Technicians only do network maintenance, computer security management and computer and terminal equipment maintenance, and some banks even outsource the maintenance work. Judging from the present situation, technicians at this level are more like porters, and they have reached the point of hopeless.
