Pros

The hours are pretty good, most of the people are normal and up for a laugh. The company is pretty ambitious for what it is and the UK / Global mix is interesting. The con stated later (personal view of poor mgmt in areas) leads to a lot of opportunities to capitalise on.

Cons

There are some areas of murky management, unsure whether this is from some culture clash from mixing a number of banks together (Abbey, A&L, Grupo). There's a strong Spanish sense in HQ which can seem like the gravy-train at times, individually they are generally good sense of humour but seems to be a spanish old-boys club at the top.

Pros

they pay good money and the bonus are spectacular, they train their employees and they invest on them as well. they always pay what they offer it can take 15 more days but they always pay and in what money is related they are cristal clear.

Cons

They treat their employees like machines and sometimes in a not very "human" way to may "generals" to few soldiers. They exploit the middle and low positions and they treat their costumer as if they were making them a favor.
