The Role
To a large extent, it was fun and very informative. It was a great way to network with people and understand the ways behind Retail Wealth Management.
To a large extent, everyone was friendly and willing to help you with opportunities.
To a large extent, my manager allowed me to attend any meetings I wished and gave me opportunities to improve my skills e.g. taking conference calls for across the region.
Very busy, the tasks I was given/planned for myself were all different, so every day was different.
The Company
The atmosphere was great, the people I worked with had a great sense of humour and also professionalism which allowed me to feel comfortable.
Very well.
A large extent, they paid for our hotels when training, they also helped with payments when traveling to London.
Flexi Time
Company Parties/Events
Very appealing, as they invest in your from the beginning it seems that there are lots of opportunities to work your way up.
The Culture
Yes, there were alot of events organised.
Low as it was subsidized.
Good.
Lots, there were many socials organised.
