Pros

Very welcoming from top to bottom and made to feel one of the team and "family". Really seem to care about their staff, treating them the same way they do their clients. Lots of social and networking opportunities to meet colleagues from around the business and excellent benefits for staff.

Cons

None I have to mention

Pros

Free Drinks Different environment to other offices Left to get on with work if you don't perform will be noticed

Cons

2% salary increase after being there for over 2 years and last year nothing! Not allowed to work from home, as top boss doesn't trust colleagues They say it's not top down structure but do not be fooled by this. The bosses are running you Fake promises for training and trips, nothing actually happens at investec unless your one of the golden boys who gets everything. To many meetings Contractors have the upper hand as they treated like employees, invited to all events etc and paid properly

Nepotism is rife at Investec

Recommend

Pros

Nice offices and some really nice employees

Cons

Nepotism is rife it does not matter if one is right for the role or not and progression is rapid for people who has a relation who is loaded, Family already works at Investec, or one is South African. They go on about inclusion and diversity but they are way behind other Banks. One team had redundancies and two of the female staff were targeted one to another area ,and one made redundant leaving 5 males and one female in the team.
