Chase reviews

Selling credit cards is corny. The lack of power of loan decision is frustrating. Having to take a thumb print from a customer is dehumanizing. The PVC comepensation program and the base salaries are geared for large urban cities. It is impossible to get Chase to pay for grad school.

Being such a large company, it is very easy for the 'little guy' to get left behind. Since the company has become such a large corporate institution, many of the little things that made it such a nice place to work for when it was smaller have been taken away to increase overall revenues. Senior management has turned largely to micro-managing the employees, which can be productive when appropriately applied, but seems to have taken a turn for the worse recently. Rather than being encouraged to produce results, employees are cautioned to fear not producing the RIGHT results. Although the incentive plan is great, the base pay is quite low compared to other financial institutions. The high personal banker incentive plan encourages a younger, more eager crowd because of it's large payout potential, but in reality is designed to turnover the position within a few years when bankers realize they can get paid a considerably higher base elsewhere, which enables the company to continue paying a much lower base. This also lowers customer satisfaction ratings because there is such a high branch turnover rate.
