Pros
Diverse and changing bank, giving opportunities to progress within the company, family friendly, flexible, forward thinking.
Cons
Certain roles are location based only.
Thank you for taking time out of what we know is a busy time to leave us a review. Its great that you feel you can give us 5 stars. You are right that we are changing some of the ways we work and its really exciting how these have accelerated during the pandemic. We are really proud of how our people have been able to suggest new things, work in an agile and flexible way, all whilst supporting our customers, each other and their own families. Yes, some of our roles are based at certain locations due to business demands but this could change in the future where appropriate.

Thank you for taking the time to reflect back on your time with us. We are proud of what we offer for our customers as well as the great teams we have who provide them with great service. The appointment last year of António Simões is helping all our countries in Europe (not just Spain) working together to continue to provide the best for our customers.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and recommending us.. Its great to hear that you enjoy the people you work with and the environment and something must be right for you to have been here for over 10 years. It is disappointing that you say "was a good company to work for" as the people environment etc are still here and the support for our people over the last 12 months has only increased, and we are really proud of this. We would encourage you to look at MyMio and the wellbeing hub if you haven't already to see what there is to offer. Yes we do work closely with our European colleagues but this is to ensure we continue to provide the best service for our customers!
