Pros
None, not even the fruit makes the place any good
Cons
So, CBS, are you going to recognise that you now have an issue with your culture, with your management style, with the Severn Trent people who have infiltrated the place over the last number of years who have no clue how to work in a Building Society? Are you going to acknowledge you have no issues whatsoever and instead give me a generic HR reply saying "Thanks for your response"? I saw your reply to an employee a few months back who asked you not to respond because of how badly they had suffered with their mental health and what did you do? Did you respect their request and not respond? No, in your arrogance for thinking you know best, you responded. How disrespectful is that to still respond to someone who asked you not to. I genuinely hope that person didn't get even further affected after getting a response, I hope you can live with yourselves if it is discovered that you set that person back even further. This is the arrogance and superiority that you now operate with, that you know best. This is why you now have this issue that you won't recognise because you arrogantly believe it is all because of 'change', not that you have incompetant leaders, that the culture is so toxic, people are suffering mental health and physical health issues and are going off sick or are voluntarily taking redundancy to get away from you. You should feel shame perpetuating a lie that CBS still have values for its members when its staff are so badly treated. I say the term members but the CEO, having taken his £2.2 million pay packet this year, clearly wants to be a bank and doesn't care about the people who still choose to 'bank' with CBS. All he wants is the prestige of being a bank and getting as much money out of it as possible and woe betide the people who lose their jobs along the way. Shame on you, CBS, for failing your staff, for forgetting why you exist in the first place, for failing your members even though they aren't aware of the failures and for creating such a terrible environment. For not respecting the mutual values that created you back in the 19th century
