Pros

Bank hours, which is great if you have kids in school, weekends off, not horrible pay, training, unfortunately, that's all I could come up with.

Cons

I was fired because I needed 3 days off to deal with a family emergency. I watched a teller/ CSR apply several times to move up to a slightly higher position, only to be overlooked by an outsider who had no experience, and was a high school buddy of the loan officer, she recently was able to move to her own office, and have a promotion that is not a promotion. She received no raise, and they told her is not a promotion.

Pros

A handful of coworkers made it tolerable other than that I can't seem to think of anything else that was positive about the company.

Cons

The training absolutely stinks. The expectations of the people behind the teller line is ridiculous. All work and no pay. Upper management has no understanding of what goes on behind the teller line until you make a mistake and then they are quick to repemend you with write ups.

Pros

Relationships with co-workers and some customers made the job tolerable. Oh and the slow days. Those are the only pros that come to mind.

Cons

Terrible pay. Even worse benefits. 401k is okay, though you have to work there YEARS before you are fully vested. If you get hired on as a part of their retail staff be prepared to take on many job responsibilities with no monetary compensation and absolutely zero respect. Basically, the retail staff is the workhorse of the company. HR is an absolute nightmare. They only care about protecting the bank's interest so if you actually have a problem at work, don't expect them to help you out with anything. If you are thinking about working here, don't. There is absolutely no room to move up. Upper management loves to hire good ole boys, who know little to nothing about the company. The most you might be able to do is be a branch manager, MAYBE a loan assistant if you suck up to the right person. Seriously, don't even entertain the thought of working here and if you already do, quit.
