Pros

- easy to get hired on all levels expect management - they don't expect much in terms of experience, knowledge or work effort

Cons

- salary below standard - management is a prime example of failing upwards Unlike what is published officially most work (case and risk reviews) is actually done in China nowadays, which means that at least the European offices don't really have to do much other than being present. Most departments touch significantly below 1% of the problems that arise in their specific market. On the other hand over 99% of all workflow gets outsourced to companies in Tunisia, the Philippines and China. At the same time the Managing Directors tour all around Europe and receive prizes for creating underpaid jobs.. This company is actually a Luxembourg registered bank, at the same time it is unbelievable how much sensitive customer information is lost through their outsourcing activities. I was using the service before, but since working there would never trust them with my personal information again. If you are looking for a easy and unchallenging job and can life with the fact that its quiet badly paid this might be a good company for you. Its actually the perfect company for students, better than working as a waiter anyway. However be prepared for some travel time, in Europe most offices they rent are in the middle of nowhere..
