Seems like every Aussie bank has gone hardcore over the last decade with social justice/political bragging. It's becoming tiresome seeing them pretend to care about every vocal cause that gets pushed by the vocal media or Twitter mob.
CBA and ANZ seem to be the worst offenders. Do any of the big 4 banks NOT do this? Or is there a smaller bank worth giving my money to so I can expect they'll use it for meaningful shit instead of "we are funding this year's short-short's parade in Sydney!" or "fossil fuel bad".
Open to any suggestions from the enlightened crowd at Ozb.
EDIT - just to clarify, I know many people who work at various banks, and the cultural expectations they push onto their employees are equally disturbing. For their sake I don't want to support such organisations.
Banks are universally scum sucking parasites. Attempts to paint themselves as anything other than ruthless profiteers are disingenuous and an insult to the collective intelligence. Any virtuous cause that they claim to champion should be seen as a smokescreen that does nothing but diminish the legitimacy of the underlying cause. I'm with the OP here, Scumbag bankers that dont pretend to be anything other than scumbag bankers are at the very least a couple of microns more honest than profiteering scumbags hiding behind a thin veil of supporting progressive politics.
