Mentioned Monzo, Starling and Santander although Monzo wont have been the bank getting the post office cash deposit.
Looks like some decent hires, hiring back is either a really good sign that people think it was better or a signal of desperation.

I’m not sure what the story is here? Junior folk join Monzo?

Yeah not really much of a story but it popped up in Google news, some new hires in fincrime/compliance and a new product lead.
Slow news day?

“according to posts on its community forum, Monzo staff are entitled to annual leave, with some even going as far as Cancun. The culture at Monzo also encourages staff to think bank-first even when on vacation. For example, financial crime investigators have been known to test the use of Monzo’s famous hot pink bank cards onboard flights to and from their destination”.

With the Anne news, I thought this should be in the Starling thread for a second!
Oh, is she off to write another tedious book about how she was totally right and 11 people were dead wrong?
Disclaimer: I did not read her book

Meanwhile, you’re here in the Starling thread writing quote “tedious” comments, and she founded actual Starling bank.
