Pros

Working for the biggest European bank

Cons

40h work for exactly 750€ Not enough to live in Lisbon. Loud open office. Difficulty to be concentrated. They say they speak rnglish but they all speak Portuguese. Bad training and training conditions. Too much work for compensation. I do not recommend at all. Just because it is written BNP you can not exploit people like this.
