Pros

Plenty of time to look for another job, long lunches, lots of free time and laughs. Time off was never an issue and when work was necessary, minimum requirements were accepted.

Cons

Nothing to learn, no motivation or expectation of advancement. A dead end for sure. Witness extreme organization failure with absent management consumed in their personel affairs.

Pros

Benefits are good, not great Company understands that it has failed its employees and makes an effort to treat them with respect to compensate Compensation was very good before Bank of England takeover for those that were non traders ad investment bankers. Interesting business challenges to work on A lot of smart experienced people for early career associates to learn form

Cons

Compensation for non traders and investment bankers has fallen for some staff by as much as 60% as a result of the unwillingness to pay bonuses Firm is in strategic downsizing mode in order to pay back the bank of England and rebuild their capital base and risk profile UK politics are very prominent driver of the bank's behavior If you are a US employee, you shouldn't get too comfortable Lost a lot of talent the past two years Looks like a big UK bank with a big trading and payments business, not very global in a world where the ability to succeed in EM is important Very political, very insular management culture
