Pros

It's a good foot in the door if you want to get into the financial industry.

Cons

Too much micromanaging and restructuring. The goals keep getting raised to the point of it not being worth it to work hard to make money.

Pros

Charter One has great benefits that they provide their full-time employees. PTO time is okay, it increases the longer you work for them. 401K is great. Will match every $1 for up to 6% of your check.

Cons

It is very hard to get promoted from Banker to Asst. Manager or Asst. Manager to Branch Manager. I have worked with so many talented people that had been with the company a long time who are well overdue for a promotion. The Branch Managers are a hit and miss. Some are really great or they are absolutely AWFUL! They are very sales-oriented there. CHECKING CHECKING CHECKING! It's all they care about. Sometimes sales are so pushy it does not feel as though they want you to have the customer's best interest but rather the bank's.
