Pros
1. Outstanding promotional opportunities particularly for Saracens affiliates. 2.Strong well-regarded reputation in the market.
Cons
3.Current EU leadership shows reduced visible diversity in senior ranks, with several departures leaving little explanation, including the head of HR and the chief risk officer. Unlike earlier exits, which were clearly communicated and publicly marked, the current team has no female or openly LGBTQ+ representation and provides few updates. While not accusing intent, the lack of transparency and representation may foster a perception of uneven treatment. 4.Paternity leave is only 2 weeks, compared with 6 months offered at Lloyds and others. 5.Many capable team members are leaving or have already departed. 6.Pay is perceived as low and benchmarking is not transparent.
