Pros

Opportunities to move laterally across the business, management invest heavily in professional (qualifications) and personal development, and the business is growing. Overall a good place to start as a junior professional in banking

Cons

Inconsistencies between teams on benefits like flexible working, compensation well below market, heavy emphasis on who you know as opposed to work produced.

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.
