Pros
Since it is a bank you will get all of the major holidays off. For the most part, the company was decent. The benefits are pretty good. We had evergreen days (employee appreciation) and a day to volunteer.
Cons
If you are customer facing, the company doesn't seem to care as much about you. Their main goal is for you to sell as much as possible. We had a micromanaging, pushy, manager with unrealistic expectations. We also weren't afforded the same benefits as corporate employees. For example, when a snowstorm came through Birmingham, an email went out stating that all of the corporate employees would be going home due to the threat of inclement weather. However, branch associates were required to stay. By the time we were released to go home, the roads had iced over and we were trapped. I know many of the corporate employees ended up stuck, too, but we were released more than an hour after they were. Basically, if you want the great work/life balance, employee appreciation, and less stress, go to the corporate side and not the branch! My spouse works in the corporate offices and has a completely different experience from me.
