Pros
Convenient- there's a lot of locations so it's easy to find a local branch Experience- learning a lot about banking all day, every day Moving up- there's many opportunities to advance within the company
Cons
Overworked- management/schedule creators work you to your max (for me, anyway) Time off? HA- they'll straight up tell you "no" when asking for time off. Even if it's just a half-day. Saturdays- New employees work every. single. saturday. Long time employees get every Saturday off LONG shifts- there's very rarely morning or afternoon or evening shifts. Expect to work open to close every shift. Training is long, dragged-out and fairly useless. As a 30-hour employee, I've been scheduled to work 39.25 hours/ week. After what I thought was a good talk with my manager, my hours were at a comfortable 32 hours for one week and the next week they were back up to 39 and have remained. I'm BURNED OUT to say the absolute least and I'm currently looking for another bank to work at.
