      Dull as dishwater

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to travel. Typically, the people are inoffensive.

      Cons

      It's like going to work every day with John Major's boring older brother. The company is dull and very old fashioned. Most offices are in desperate need of refurbishment. Some of the smaller offices are very nice. Company does not like to spend money, not at all. Terrible health cover, no employee perks. Salary and bonus scheme are lacking. It is structured so that you will be very unlikely to get half the bonus in your contract. 50 percent of the bonus depends on some obscure financial performance metric which nobody understands.

      Pros

      None, there is nothing positive about this company

      Cons

      The management is very aggressive, poor product development, the staff turnover is really high in various areas of the business. The environment is very oppressive they squeeze like a lemon and then dispose you when it suits them, this is not a place for a long term career at all

      worst.experience.ever. - Made redundant to save commission

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      widespread client base in correspondent banking, on-boarding, KYC, risk and payment functions worldwide. nice colleagues, good product management and client service support team

      Cons

      Due to the merger between Bankersalmanac and Accuity the working atmosphere is toxic. Twice as much people as needed lead to plenty redundancies in middle management and sales floor. Information& subscription [BA site] sales floor got mixed with software sales people [Accuity], therefore quality and style varies greatly. There is no reliable support network for the products, it all depends on your team. PSG and business solution is 2 people in the Uk for global support. They are heavily overworked, rude and still use waterfall. Structure lacks: Targets are not adapted to size of software deals yet. I got made redundant one day [!] before my software deal came in and Im not the only one. This is not sustainable business at all, stay away or be very in-transparent with your pipeline.
