Pros

Location of office Pay and benefits Relatively stress-free environment Bob Diamond is a good leader

Cons

Too UK focused. The UK unit is smaller and makes less profit, come on guys! Too many policies and procedures that are not maintained or owned. Can drive you insane. Employee performance review process is why top talent wont stay.
