Pros

The people are great; fantastic career opportunities for the 'right' employee; well respected employer in the market - looks great on your resume

Cons

Culture is average; a large proportion of the managers have little or no management skills. Remuneration is terrible and has been for years. Heavy workloads with very little recognition in some areas. Bullying exists through-out the company and HR is useless - tends to act on behalf on management only and not for the employee.

Pros

Lots of scope to learn and move between different business lines. Flexible working is encouraged. Some great people. Benefit package is reasonable.

Cons

Pay and bonuses are badly behind market. No real link between performance and pay. Almost all rewards go to very senior management. Stay for a few years to get experience then move on.
