Pros

- Good team, good people to work with. - Work can be challenging but this is good for development - Pay and bonus ok - Modern Office

Cons

Office Policy is 3 days a week which is reasonable however to receive emails from management saying "everyone needs to be at their desk by 9am not 9:01am" is a bit silly - no flexibility there. System's are bit outdated however this is common with large banking firms.

Pros

Supportive firm-wide culture; competitive pay; surrounded by some of the smartest people you'll ever meet.

Like most banking jobs, incredibly long hours. Group specific: culture can be poor / not well supported, poor organization / staffing at group level.
