Pros

Great training, very strong bank, growing market share, and solid regional management.

Cons

Generally paid less than similar jobs at other banks, easy to get pigeon holed into a certain part of the bank, and there are a lot of politics (but this is how it is at any large company).

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.
