Pros

--IMs get paid extremely well, especially compared to local UK banking jobs. The benefits package is significant. --The opportunities for exposure, geographic and cross-business development, and networking are great --Work/life balance is fantastic--short hours, lots of holiday and easy to book time off

Cons

--You cannot choose your job, location or time of move --HR are useless --Compensation/standard of living varies widely depending on location --It's very difficult to forge relationships, both personal and professional, because you keep moving and the programme won't allow you to pursue them

Pros

Its a good job if you want to break into banking field after being a teller

Cons

If you are a former banker is not the best job since commisions are based on branch points and if you are at a sucky branch well, commision will not be the best
