Pros

Some amazing people still left (but very few) Good pension and benefits

Cons

People with any entrepreneurial spirit or wanting to make a change are no longer encouraged to be themselves. Push to get everyone into an office for no real reason under the banner of “collaboration” but it’s really to justify having the space. So many people being made redundant there’s a fear whenever you get an invite to meet with your line manager. Presentism is now the go to standard.

Pros

Very few nowadays Opportunities outside of US Decent benefits package

Cons

Staffing is atrocious and getting worse. Raises and Bonuses have become a joke. If I wanted to be an OPs manager, I would have applied for that job. If I wanted to be a teller, I would have applied for that job. Nepotism Favoritism Bias Compensation My annual payout and review was done by people I don't work with or report to. No one higher up truly understands what they are asking of branch employees anymore. It's sad.
