Working @ WestLB

[janetwaggon]

I'm thinking of applying for a post at WestLB and wanted to get an idea of what it's like to work there. Can anyone help?

Didn't they close down last week?

WestLB fired 100 analysts and dealers yesterday.

Apparently 20,000 jobs have been lost from the City's 400,000 workforce since 2000 - so you might not be able to pick and choose who you work for!

J,

It depends which role (and which location) you get - if you havent worked for a German bank (especially if its state owned as well) you can be in for some fun !

Having worked for 2 German banks in london, not sure "fun" is the adjective I would have used..!!
