Pros

Great place to work. The bank is growing and servicing one of the hottest areas in the economy. Very Flat organization. Culture of empowerment and collaboration.

Cons

The bank is still growing, so there are the usual growing pains associated with that. Most notably on the systems and product side.

Pros

Some of the people are great, friendly and easy to get on with. Nice new offices in London. Wide salary bands and competitive pay.

Cons

- Very cliquey in the UK, particularly among senior staff. Some are obsessed with micro managing all the wrong things instead of tackling the bigger issues. This may be because they lack experience of such senior level roles from outside the company in some cases. - No form of flexible working and very limited progression. - Projects/processes are chaotic. - The culture is completely mismanaged. Several of the senior staff do not display any of the cultural values/behaviours that they insist others must follow.
