Pros

Paid vacation and paid sick leave

Cons

Do not expect to have any work life balance at the Bowie location in Maryland. If you plan on applying here when a position opens, save yourself from the crappy management you have to put up with. No one gives a hoot about having a work life balance and neither does your manager. New manager will work you everyday with no days off and expect you to meet high unachievable quotas with close to no branch traffic to set you up for failure. Branch manager also doesn't do any work or helps business customers in the branch when that's their job. Also Expect to be disrespected by ghetto branch manager. Forget whatever days you put on your application you are unavailable, they don't give a crap they will work you whenever. Expect to have little pay if you are a new hire. It is rare to even get a raise. The m&t culture is great on paper but you will not see it in this branch. You will forever be just another M&T minion if you continue working here. Incentive plan is bs.

Pros

The team members were generally supportive, and the role offered exposure to probate and estate administration. It can be a starting point for gaining experience in a specialized area of banking.

Cons

Many of the advertised benefits of the role did not align with the day-to-day reality. Opportunities for growth, training, and process improvement were limited, and the workload often felt driven by volume rather than quality. Communication and expectations could be inconsistent, making it difficult to feel supported or set up for long-term success.
