      Financially rewarding, but not well treated (Mexico branch)

      Mid range account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      they pay good money and the bonus are spectacular, they train their employees and they invest on them as well. they always pay what they offer it can take 15 more days but they always pay and in what money is related they are cristal clear.

      Cons

      They treat their employees like machines and sometimes in a not very "human" way to may "generals" to few soldiers. They exploit the middle and low positions and they treat their costumer as if they were making them a favor.

      A luxury Hyundai

      Senior small business specialist ii
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Formerly Sovereign Bank in the US, so the company paid well to attract talent from Citi, BOA, Wells, etc. for sales roles in private banking, business banking, etc. Retail business model was recently re-aligned for certain retail level personnel to reflect higher levels of autonomy and responsibility.

      Cons

      Because Santander USA consists of a smaller, recently acquired, and converted northeastern US regional bank, it's chasing big-bank ambitions before actually building up it's operating technology, brand and reputation. Name recognition is entirely non-existent and can be a hurdle when looking to acquire affluent, and more established clientele. Simple things such as customer service that closed on the weekend, updated but inadequate business online banking - outages, customer information systems not fully integrated, and simple technical issues were common place as recently as January of this year. Many of these were deal-breakers for prospects considering bringing their full banking relationship over from more capable institutions.
