Cons
If you have joined as a Financial Specialist you will have ruined your career from the starting day. You will get minimal support from branch staff and the branch manager will try to get all his job done through you. You will once in a while see your line manager and the sales trainers are non existent. They are sitting in their posh offices. This sector of the post office is just there and they just want to keep their contract with Bank of Ireland for selling their products. They do not care about individuals and that is why they get rid of them within 12 months. Yes, your trial period will be for 12 months and then you are gone. Think twice before applying.
