Recent experiences @ Deutsche bank?
Don't think I've worked anywhere where there is a single sweeping culture across the organisation, always differed from the various business units/physical offices.

Commuting for 2hrs each way every day. Any thoughts?
I worked in the City for a few years before realising I was spending the majority (2+days) working from home.
