Pros

company make sure they develop top employees. Salary not to bad, very innovative bank with top products. If you move in the correct circle you can make it to the top

Cons

Provide a bursary with a huge investment in human capital and them tell you that it is a nice degree to have, after that no progression because you are not the correct race or gender. With this in mind you can clearly see that the service standards of the company has taken a serious dip, they are not on world standards but rather on African Standards (third world).

Pros

The people in my team were nice and always available to assist. Good benefits as well as staff rates for home loans, etc. Remote and hybrid working conditions for now. FNB takes the time to collect employee feedback and try to make changes.

Cons

I worked in FNB Investments and we had a lot of seniors and management leave within a short space of time. The new CIO has made the business unit a tough place to work at with confusing direction to management which trickles down to team members. The raises and bonuses have been smaller every year and the workload has not slowed down. Employee recognition and team building is non existent. Alot of the work fell on developers to carry as the systems analysts and devops engineers did not have enough knowledge to adequately do their job. Devops don’t even know how to look at bamboo logs properly to diagnose an issue which is basic.
