      Pros

      - Very good social atmosphere - Regular team drinks / food - Regular sales floor drinks / food - 5 a side weekly and 11 a side every few weeks - Often have drinks with co workers - All weekends off - Half a chance of making good money in 5 - 7 years (100K a year)

      Cons

      - As a BD you don't earn commission (Base is £20K). Can be a lot of hard work for very little reward. - Need to bill 55k in rev (will probably take a year) to be promoted and start to earn commission - FX is a very saturated market and can be difficult to pitch - Only 20 days holiday a year - Office in a dull basement - During summer the market goes quiet and clients go on holiday - Time after 4:00pm is often dead - Everything is based on KPIs (call times, prospects, apps back, trades). This means people falsify their records in order to meet them - Big business can take months to secure; time which you may not be given

      Thank you for your comments. We are glad that you recognise the good things that happen at Ebury and potential to be promoted and make good money in commissions thereafter. Like many successful start ups we are not as competitive as longer established companies when it comes to benefits, but we are looking to become more competitive on this front in the not too distant future - at the moment the focus is on rapid international growth and the recruitment of great sales people. In regards to the dull basement comment, we have since move to a new location in which our whole sales and back office team occupy a very modern high tech office floor with floor to ceiling glass windows, chill out areas and a roof terrace...this is all in the heart of Victoria just 2 minutes from Victoria station.

      Pros

      Majority of people are great

      Cons

      Allows racism and sexism on a daily basis. Some managers would refer to women as b****, say that Asians eat rats, and use the R-word constantly. I was made fun of because of my race on a daily basis, and heard managers use mocking racist accents all the time.
