      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent employer benefits including attractive pension scheme, shares scheme, paternity leave and holiday schemes.

      Cons

      Lack of autonomy (consistently) across management levels which can often be the case with large corporates, and lower level salaries that are supported by attractive benefits

      Good place to work

      Analyst
      Current employee
      Perth, Scotland
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strong work life balance and good pension scheme

      Cons

      Can be hard for career progression

      Pros

      Benefits are good, pension is good and so are the shares

      Cons

      Pay rises can take 6 months to agree, progression is non existent, if you do want to progress you need to be best mates with the senior leaders, HR recruitment is a joke
