Very mixed

Pros

Good benefits, healthy work/life balance and generally a good atmosphere in the office.

Cons

Painfully slow and bureaucratic, almost to the point of paralysis. Limited possibilities for advancement on a non-managerial path. A lack of local competition in Sheffield means salaries and rises are flat. The public position on culture and values is not always embodied by management.

Pros

Heavy investment to have you acclimated into the bank

Cons

If one is not enterprised via any of the management or executive trainee programs then career progressions routes are very dismal and time consuming.
