Pros

PTO, benefits, flexibility, salary (if you are able to negotiate well) Past Managers are understanding and caring; can't say the same about Managers hired by RBS team members are approachable

Cons

Most IT roles are outsourced/ contracted no loyalty to employees - contractors are hired into FT roles promotions and internal transfers will happen if you know the Manager/ Director or have connections - know people in the right places RBS calls all shots

Pros

Decent pay, PTO is nice, some employees really do generally care but they are the minority.

Cons

Sales is the only game at Citizens. It is absolutely a "what have you done for us today" atmosphere. As soon as you have one below average quarter, you go on corrective action. The policies are so subjective they can make them say whatever is the most convenient for them. Have a top of market quarter? You get audited and they find enough to basically pay you nothing. Having been in that position multiple times, it makes one wonder why good employees stay.
