Nine Things Nigerian Bankers Hate About Their Jobs by WorkLife: 12:16pm On Sep 18, 2017
The Nigerian banking space is fiercely competitive; only the fittest survive. Maintaining the minimum capital base means adopting aggressive marketing techniques and a cutting edge corporate culture. The pressure this goal places on bank workers makes banking one of the least enviable professions in Nigeria today. Below are some of things that Nigerian bankers hate about their jobs...

1. Perennial late closing hours
2. Being engaged on a contract basis and earning far less than other permanent staff
3. Having to work 50 hours and above every week including weekends
4. Non-existent study leave
5. Unrealistic job target
6. Job insecurity and loss over the smallest infractions
7. Abusive language
8. Heavy workloads
9. Poor or non-existent severance packages

Apart from those mentioned above, there is uneven rivalry among staff (a lot of staff backbite others to get some juicy desk functions) , promotion is not your right but privilege, even if you meet up with your KPIs scorecard, cost containment drive could rub it off on you and so on.

No matter how much I preach about Entrepreneurship,many people will still be employee. There has to be a balance and because of that, I don't mind. If everyone become an entrepreneur, who will attend to me in the bank? Who will I employ as my sales man?

However, that doesn't dispute the fact that bankers are in modern slavery.

And two things bankers like about their job:

1. Delaying transactions for no reason. The most common of this is related to ATM card. If your ATM card have issues and you don't have any money on you, just go and start begging people for money else, you die of hunger

2. Deducting money from one's account for the most useless reason. I hail those banks, let me not mention names.
