      Awful place to work

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Only the share system...

      Cons

      Having to get to work an hour before you open and not being paid for it.. No flexibility for moving branches. Forced to sell products ie insurance and loans to target.. Always numbers numbers numbers..... Wages are awful for the responsibility you have. And was threatened on a daily basis to be sacked if products weren't sold. Days off changed last minute sometimes with less than 24hours notice and rotas only done 1week in advance. Less than 24hours notice of moving to another branch...

      It is very disappointing to read your review. This is clearly not the environment we need to have for our colleagues to be successful and definitely not one that we expect our management teams to build. I will feed your comments back to the right office so we can learn from your experience. Good luck with your next career move

      Thanks for taking the time to post your comments. As we all know, we have a strong focus on transformation and it is disappointing to read that you do not feel it is having the impact we want. I really hope that, as a senior member of our team, you are able to influence this and feedback your thoughts to drive improvement. Good luck with your future transformation changes.
