Pros

If you are looking for something to do, management or will be more than happy to slap on more work. Good amount of fruit.

Cons

Nepotism. In one team a senior manager hired their own son as a direct report with his friends. (Unethical in an asx 100 company) Toxic workplace. Leadership intentionally ignores employee feedback and phony self-contrived policies which they themselves don’t abide by. Your direct manager will do everything in their power to hurt your career development and sow team distrust just to cause chaos out of boredom. No flexible working environment. Bums on seat culture, don’t be fooled by the job ads, flexible working is only for the senior leadership to rub in your face. Siloed teams. Each team is their individual managers castle, no chance of secondments and no support for other teams. Micromanagement. This is for all teams. Self explanatory Zero growth. There is no drive or hunger for improvement here everyone is sitting down waiting to retire or be made redundant Minimal pay. Guaranteed you’ll take a pay cut when coming here, this bank takes what it can that the big 4 don’t forced leave. Forced leave for 7 days at Christmas every year, no exceptions Zero employee engagement- don’t expect team building activities or an invitation to the friends & management only club products and systems. Outdated not something you can sell or be proud of
