Pros

Good people to work with; management is supportive to help you move around

Cons

Poor promotion of learning; little to no employee perks; opportunities to move around are available but it is not advertised and you have to spend a lot of effort to look for it

Pros

Flexible working in some teams Great office - 1 Churchill Place Go in at the right level and it's a good place to work - you can progress Graduate scheme people are well thought of in industry

Cons

Lack of growth - Retail Bank is stagnant - and its all about managing a portfolio - no NPD ITS ALL ABOUT REPORTING - decks, decks, decks, MI, MI, MI, (yawn) Lack of proffesional people there- too many people who have worked their way up to a B6 level with no ideas, no passion and are just corporate bods A lot of Americans - by this I mean Americans are brought over on huge relocation packages at B7 level - why not internally develop/promote
