productive workplace
Customer Services Officer (Former Employee), Scunthorpe – January 7, 2013
Pros: close to home - could walk to work. the colleagues were great
Cons: very hard to get decisions from higher management who were off site.
A typical day at work was to process requests for customers for a variety of different mortgage queries, and to action the final stages of a mortgage after it had closed. We were flexible as we were moved daily from one team to another, including answering queries directly from customers on helplines.
The best part of the job was the co-workers. We – more... were always willing to help each other to get the job done, as it meant we regularly:
a - learned new processes,
b - got up to date information,
c - helped people (internal and external customers)
Our immediate management were pro-active in resolving issues and making our job satisfactory.
The hardest part of the job was having a problem that could not be resolved due to company or FSA policy. All that could be done in those cases was give customers the options that we had available, and let them make a choice. – less

Varied different jobs available over time
Securities Centre Subject Matter Expert (Current Employee), Gillingham, Kent – December 27, 2012
Pros: free parking
Cons: no prospects unless relocating to scotland

Work is varied depending on department.
I have been involved in legal and conveyancing type work which was interesting.

Busy, long queues but friendly environment
Bank Manager (Former Employee), 88-90 Fore Street Edmonton – November 27, 2012
Pros: the challenge to do well
Cons: long hours
A very busy branch where no two days are the same. Long queues inevitable but with excellent customer service from management and team this is relished by the customers.

Productive workplace
Personal Banker (Current Employee), East Grinstead – June 27, 2012
Pros: cheaper products for staff, fair salary and bonus, benefits outside of work
Cons: unpaid work hours are expected, funding your own travel at distance
A typical day at work consisted of cashiering, telephone conferences, meetings with customers, recommending and selling products, office administration and more cash handling.
I learned a lot about customer service here and will take that wherever I go as well as how to change the way you communicate with people.
The management are always there to support – more... you and are there to keep your mind directed at the job in hand.
Co-workers are generally nice and friendly, however they generally feel as if they no longer wish to work within banking itself.
The hardest part of the job is trying to find the sales when there are no customers in the branch and you're not having any success during your outbound telephony sessions.
The best part of the job by far is seeing how much of an impact you can make on somebody's life but helping them with their finances, whether it is saving them money or by helping them fund something that will make a difference. – less

The best Bank in the UK to work for
Branch Manager (Former Employee), London United Kingdom – March 23, 2012
Pros: excellent work and team atmosphere
Cons: at times there was a huge lack of resources
The communication from higher management to the cashier was vast. There was nothing a cashier did not know regarding the performance of the Branch and what could be done to improve performance, no information was hidden, unless it did not personally concern you

Equilibre vie professionnelle/personnelle
FLOW LEADER TRADE FINANCE (Former Employee), BRUXELLES – September 24, 2012
Pros: assurance hospitalisation, plan de pension complémentaire, chèques-repas, environnement multiculturel, utilisation et amélioration régulière des langues étrangères, possibilités d'évolution, siège central avec beaucoup de fonctions différentes
Cons: changement trop fréquent de management, trop peu de formations, peu de contrôle hiérarchiques donc beaucoup de responsabilités à endosser par rapport à la fonction
Après ouverture du courrier et lecture des mails, je triais le travail par degré d'urgence et d'importance pour le distribuer et m'assurer de son exécution correcte dans les délais.
J'ai pu au cours de ma carrière progresser régulièrement vers plus de responsabilités et de prises d'initiatives.
Mes collaborateurs étaient multilingues et de nationalités – more... différentes ce qui favorisait l'usage des langues étrangères.
Le plus difficile dans ma fonction était de me faire accepter dans un environnement néerlandophone. Le plus agréable était d'être présente et de me sentir utile pour aider l'un ou l'autre collaborateur en cas de besoin. – less
