Vantaggi
Smart offices and some very good people mainly overhired and underemployed. Ambitious growth plans to try to break in to the top tier of private banks.
Svantaggi
You are expected to run to stand still while the organisation continues to hire only "A players" and force ranks existing staff to meet the "vitality curve". Roles tend to be execution focussed and staff seem to be afraid of not being in "back-to-back" meetings in case they are thought to have some slack. Consequently challenge and debate is not welcome as everyone is hoping that they will end meetings early to get a breather in before the next. Low morale and employee engagement - almost none of it emotional. Long hours and presentee culture. Consequently vulnerable to losing staff who to other FI's who will happily bid up the price for staff whose only real reason to stay is the money.
