RBS - A great place to spend time paying bills.

Business Outlook

Pros

An employer who can be flexible when it suits them. The management can be very selective about who gets ahead. It depends on ho wmuch brown-nosing and ego massaging you want to engage in. They are not very responsive in taking feedback from people in their business who actually have somethign positive to contribute to improve the business model. Each department worries about their own targets and not how the ycan harness the power of the entire organisation to drive the business to increased profitability. They are very slow at responding to a quickly changing market and there is not a lot of room for an individual to drive forward with an idea.

Cons

Slow change process - always restructuring with no managerial consistency.

Don't try to care about your job, you'll just end up frustrated.

Business Outlook

Pros

There is a good final pension scheme, one of the last remaining in the UK. Colleagues are naturally helpful, except when management ordains that they shouldn't be. There are some great buildings, although the management of those buildings leaves something to be desired. We sponsor the Williams F1 Team!

Cons

Career choice and employee freedom is pushed, but it's all just words. Management responsibilities such as security, training, career stability, appraisals are now employee responsibilities, with no extra training, money or time. Newly refurbished buildings in Edinburgh have a chronic lack of desks, for which nothing is being done. All staff events are called that take most staff out of the office for a half-day or more to bore them rigid. 'Advanced Working' means keeping all your possesions in a little box. The biggest innovation in the last five years is 'A blu-tac free building'.
