Pros

Fantastic opportunity to be given legitimate responsibility and meaningful tasks that will have a lasting impact. Opportunity to speak to members of the Executive Committee which is very rare and they help to give you tremendous insight and unparalleled career advice. Dedication to the SAP is amazing and would highly recommend to any student looking to gain insight into the financial services industry.

Cons

Length of the programme is only 9 weeks, would be great to have the opportunity of 12 weeks.

Pros

There is real opportunity for career and skill growth. The company runs short on head count, so people willing to take on more responsibilities have avenues to progress. However, you will need to force the issue for promotions & large salary increases after you prove your capabilities. Realistically it'll take an external counteroffer to move the needle.

Cons

It's a large bank and you're a number in the system. If your NPV is positive you'll stay, else you'll be laid off. This includes both scenarios you control and those you don't. Ex. You control your performance, in office time and networking You don't control if your location is a strategic growth site, if a major client goes with a competitor, or if you'd be impacted by a general company-wide layoff plan.
