Svantaggi
Well, where do I start from? First of all, the only reason why they employ more than 5k people in Portugal is because they can pay the employees based on the Portuguese standard and not on the industry average. Intern 6 months 400€ Intern 12 month 725€ Permanent 1000€, but watch out! these figures can vary a lot based on your nationality, Portuguese people are usually paid 10/15% less than a foreigner. No career progression and no salary rise at all, or better they give you titles such as "Team Leader" just to add more responsibilities to your workload. Most salary rise are around 1€ per day (20/30€ per month). BNPP in 2018 made 7bn€ of profit. HR department is a complete disaster, inefficient, unprepared and not responsive at all. 6 payslips out of 12 so far contained at least one error. Recruitment process: 90% of my colleagues had no finance background, they just hire everyone who is willing to receive the few € they offer. Personal experience of a colleague who left the bank in may for having 3 months of vacations and then joined again (permanent position) in September in a slightly different team. Lack of direction from Managers, in the end, what do you expect from a manager that gets 1200€ per month? All the decisions are taken by Paris, Portugal is just seen as a cheap labor force. The unsatisfaction is spread all over the employees, during lunchtime the most common conversation is about applications to other jobs. in conclusion: IF YOU PAY PEANUTS YOU GET MONKEYS!
