Pros

Great hours and benefits. Well advertised. Competitive product lines make for confidence in sales.

Cons

Get ready to be a telemarketer. That is what you will do 80% of the time. Selling with a gun at your head. Pressure to hit sales quotas results in unethical behavior amongst colleagues, and inappropriate placement of products. Quotas are unrealistic, so you wont make any extra bonus. Job threats continuously. Most stressed group of people i have ever met.

Pros

PTO, benefits, flexibility, salary (if you are able to negotiate well) Past Managers are understanding and caring; can't say the same about Managers hired by RBS team members are approachable

Cons

Most IT roles are outsourced/ contracted no loyalty to employees - contractors are hired into FT roles promotions and internal transfers will happen if you know the Manager/ Director or have connections - know people in the right places RBS calls all shots
