Santander reviews

-Management has no clear direction at all -Not enough work to perform -Work is allocated poorly (some employees work over the weekends, others have nothing to do) -No appreciation for hard work -If you are not Spanish, not much opportunity to move forward in career development -Backwards way of doing promotions (sometimes need to leave the company and come back to apply for a higher position) -Salaries well below market average -People leave the company and the department does not fill any positions -Extremely high use of consultants, leading to high costs, and ultimately lower pay/benefits

Not sure where to begin. Certain people in management are not qualified to do their job. Some of them have absolutely no audit background/knowledge and do not have the skills necessary to manage effectively. Worse of all, senior management refuses to address the issues and prefer to keep losing great talents. If you are a professional with good work ethics, please do yourself a favor: STAY AWAY FROM SANTANDER INTERNAL AUDIT DEPARTMENT! STAY AWAY! If you would like to corroborate this comment, ask a few recruiters in the Boston area and they will tell you.
