Pros

Great co-workers/management (for the most part), friendly clients, very local client base

Cons

Pay is not on par with other banks (granted it is a smaller bank), very antiquated software system on both the teller line and platform (tellers still use adding machines from the 90's where as other banks simply input cash in/out to the computer), no room for promotion or transfer unless you have the ins with HR, most branches are short staffed yet will not make part-timers full-time even if they request it

Pros

- Very good learning experience - Knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful people in the office

Cons

The Chicago office is a commercial site, so all other interns for the bank sit in either New Jersey, New York, or Florida. Not necessarily a bad thing because it helped form better connections with everyone in the office, but networking with other interns was more difficult.
