Pros

Giving great customer service and leaving the customer delighted is incredibly rewarding. The job I absolutely love. My team I work with are great.

Cons

Top heavy management structure implemented by new manager from the UK. At present they are still are still creating a cultural shift away from trust and belief in colleagues to the standard UK (I worked as a Team Leader in UK) authoritarian mentality so very common to the UK Banking & Finance industry. Employee rights seen as an optional nicety. Having to employ actual people viewed as a necessary evil. Everyday I go to work there is always someone nee thats missing (never know what happened to the colleague). Their annual staff turnover runs around 40%.

Pros

Great culture, Flexibility, Nice building, Talented people, strong processes and always evolving tech stack.

Cons

Sometime work can be monotonous, if you are stuck in a team for long time. Finding opportunities to move across teams, you have to fend for yourselves, people leaders too busy or aloof to help.

Pros

What you put in is what you get out, smaller nimble bank - more opportunity for growth within company

Cons

Regional bank so limiting for opportunities outside of the company - not an easy transition
