Pros

It does offer a good benefits package with bupa and pension contributions

Cons

Salary is a still low considering a Universal Banker deals with peoples money You work half day Saturdays but expected to give hours back by taking 30 minutes lunch break because you get a full day in lieu. However you expected to arrive for work early and constantly leave late so land up working for free Bonuses decrease yearly instead of increasing considering profits made Always understaffed, branches closing putting pressure on remaining branches which has lowest number of staff than ever before No progression for branch staff Branch staff really treated as "bottom" of food chain Branch staff not respected by senior management No real work life balance working in branch and no flexibilit.

Pros

Good holidays, uniform provided by company

Cons

Organisation of the business lacking, not enough training for new staff before they’re put in front of the public, worked to the bone and given no thanks. Stressful environment. Lack of care by larger business as a whole as customer facing workers probably going to be obsolete eventually.
