Business Outlook

Pros

A bank with the pace of a line ministry. Reasonable hours. Extra days off before holidays. Defined pension benefit plan (yes, almost a unicorn).

Cons

Diminishing compensation due to inflation (and management could care less). Low morale, despite perks. Recent scandal that ousted the President left a sour taste in the mouths of those lower down the food chain. Unclear career paths. Lots of favoritism. The staff/non-staff divide which gets old.
