Pros

Health Benefits, you can take an hour lunch, everyone starts with 17 days vacation(pro and con) because if you’ve already been in the industry and built up vacation you’re starting from scratch. opportunities to learn on the job, paid volunteering, opportunities for bonuses quarterly.

Cons

Too strict with everything, all they care about are numbers and goals, almost impossible to get company to pay for anything (chair, lunch, cash counter). Very cheap company with salaries and vacation. They do not negotiate vacation AT ALL. Expect you to do two jobs for the pay of one. Also my customers are always getting fraud on their accounts more than I’ve ever seen at any other bank. I was told it is the “fifth third way” to call out people In front of each other for mistakes. For example: during a meeting a manager will call you out in front of everyone for your mistakes and ask you why you did it. This is normal to them… and bad hours.

Pros

Good work environment. Management can be good depending on your branch. Can make lots of close friends.

Cons

Very sales-focused. Does not matter if customer does not qualify for credit cards, loan, etc., you have to put the application in to meet quota. And the occasional rude customer.
