Pros

Location and work-life balance. Friendly and multi-cultural team

Cons

Sales might be ok if they don’t think too much what snake oil they sell. Technical departments are a joke. A lot of really good professionals managed by incompetent people and projects run by really uninformed ego-driven businessmen. Claim to build a modern web based software, but not fit to it at all. Hard to push anything through. Would say that project-wise and process-wise they’re stuck in early 2000’s. Ruined projects mean finding scapegoats in tech teams. Except some small perks, bonus system and pay raise are a joke.

Pros

Training is ok and a good company to start your career in AML Compliance Sales. Fruit deliveries to the office. 28 days holiday.

Cons

Bad management that sits on the fence and scarred of making decisions even if it means you are struggling. Very low salaries comparing to competitors in London. There was cases were people never got the role they applied for. A few girls were uncomfortable with a certain manger's look that he gave them. Promotions are far in between and not necessarily the best candidate gets the promotion.
