Pros

Smart colleagues, experience working with teams in different time zones in a global company, close to T and parking

Cons

Management runs the business as if it is the 19th century. “Shut up and do as I tell you”. Politics is all about blaming other IT departments (especially ISBAN) instead of focusing on solving problems. No training, very poor planning, lack of communications and lack of help from other departments, unless is escalated, which makes projects late or very hard to accomplish on time. Very rude environment with managers (Specially Spaniards) yelling and mistreating others. You need to be there at least 11 hours a day or they will think that you are not a good enough employee. No possibilities of growth unless you are a Spaniard. If there is a position open, they will bring somebody form Spain instead of promoting from within.

Pros

Collaborative and smart people, close to the T and parking (If you arrive early). Pay a little below the average for same positions in the financial sector and the benefit package is standard for the financial sector

Cons

Very stressful place to work with no vision of where things need to go or what to do. Things get escalated daily and senior management just focuses on the fire of the day instead of focusing on issues that will help in the long term. If you want to practice your Spanish, this is a very good place for you since 90% of time you are forced to listen to a conversation in Spanish or receive emails in Spanish Very flat organization In the US, therefore no room for growth. Also, it feels that if you are not from Spain or from Mexico, you are not going to go anywhere. No work/life balance. A lot of work and a few people to do that work, therefore you are forced to work long hours every day. No vision as to what the future of the company is, therefore no future. It feels worse everyday. Also, it is only focused on one customer (Since it is part of Santander Group) and that customer does whatever it wants and nobody can say anything about poor requirements, crazy time frames and lack of process
