Pros

I was very pleased with the financial benefits: The pay was at the top end of the industry standard and I received a very sizeable bonus each year - a full 15% of my salary. The company is extremely well organized and focused primarily on gaining a foothold in the US. Subsequently there is no shortage of work or opportunities to move around to gain more experience within the company.

Kontras

Anyone looking for a pat on the back or who requires job well done motivational therapy need not apply. You will be worked hard and in a fairly impersonal manner. Whether this is responsible for the high turnover I couldn't say but certainly the sensitivities of employees was not high on management's list. The cultural difference of working for a Spanish organization takes a little getting used to resulting in much getting lost in translation.

Pros

Of all the companies I have worked for, Santander has had the strongest training program. The training was comprehensive, well-structured, and especially valuable for employees who are new to the banking industry. Additionally, Santander's ONE software is by far the most intuitive and user friendly banking platform I have used, making it easy to learn and navigate while supporting efficient daily operations.

Kontras

Like most retail banking roles, there is a strong sales component. With fewer customers visiting branches due to online banking and ATMs, much of the day is spent making outbound calls to existing clients, trying to set appointments, and push products and services. While I understand the importance of sales in the industry, I personally felt there was significant pressure to prioritize sales goals over relationship building and client service, which I was not comfortable with.
