RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at Barclays full-time for more than a year
Pros
Adequate remuneration, excellent hygiene factors (offices), good training and good trainers and they did actually spend a lot of time on the "culture change"/"values" change.

I was always clear what to do and who to deliver results to and was confident when handing over to other team.
Cons
Little or no opportunities outside of London (1CP), average bonus payments (as % of base).
