Pros

Good brand and market recognition - looks good on a CV. Working heavily with emerging markets - good exposure versus other banks.

Cons

Product set quite standard and not too sophisticated. Little room for growth as most teams quite saturated. Rely too heavily on soft targets such as number of calls made.
