Pros

- Good career-starting job. There's a lot to learn about the banking industry and they will teach you. - Good, honest, hard-working people at the branch level. - Conservative (stable)

Cons

- Compensation package is terrible compared to competitors - Advancement is very political in nature. Not always based on performance, but moreso who they like and don't like. - Very sales heavy approach with no incentive for hitting goals. On the flip side, distain for not hitting goals. - Technologically inept

So far everything has been a Pro, total teamwork! Everyone is so kind and so helpful. My experience has been nothing but wonderful. My management team and coworkers are the best. They only seem to want the best for you and if you want to move up or go in a different direction, they are more than happy to help you!!! The training is great and very thorough!!!

Cons

I have not had any cons so far!!!

Pros

Plenty of opportunity at dollar for growing your knowledge and experience. Leadership does care about their people and there is a a fair bit of access to executive management. Benefits are pretty good with insurance, gym reimbursement, 401k match and other things.

Cons

Performance incentives are sorely lacking here. If you are a high performer, you get the same performance incentive distributed into your 401k as someone who is average. Management also has a track record of adding responsibilities but not necessarily increasing compensation. The other main item is that the majority of employees have started and stayed at dollar. Coming in externally with difference experiences can be challenging.
