Pros

1. Senior management in the risk sphere seems to be very competent. 2. Role offers great exposure to upper management (EVPs), who value your opinion 3. Salary/benefits are competitive given that workload is not too onerous

Cons

1. Huge organization so it may be hard to quantify your overall contribution to the firm 2. Uncertainty regarding future (and bonuses) given 80% ownership by UK government. 3. Does not appear to be clear-cut career progression; need sponsors within organization to chart career path

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
