Sometimes I wonder whether this place is more disorganised than Citigroup. Then I remember our group has been kicked into the long grass by the mgmt dream team and it's time to leave.
I think they're all as bad as each other, I don't have first hand experience with Citi, but Lloyds and Barcalys Wealth yes.
I contracted for both, I was hot desking...took three weeks to get set up on systems and IT were not reachable.
The other was epically bad, they took on 10 of us at the back of an FSA (at the time) ARROW visit, then realised they didn't have space for us, so they shipped us to a recovery site....which had no PC's, we were forgotten about for two months in there. I sat on a desk in a warehouse like office with no PC reading e-books all day and invoicing them a 5 figure sum every four weeks....sounds nice? by week two it was the most tedious thing ever...waking up in the morning and getting ready to go and sit on a chair til 5pm was brain numbing.
