Pros

Learn a lot - challenged. Have the option to create process and procedures. Have online courses and a wonderful Toastmaster's Club!

Cons

Not always appreciated. Sometimes processes and responsibilities are not always clear. Some managers favor certain employees and that makes it difficult but overall it is a good environment to work in.

Pros

Good 401k match and average work life balance.

Cons

Everything else. The culture is a nightmare. Dishonest management, lagging technology, no opportunity for growth.

Pros

This bank is very counter cultural compared to other banks. I have been in branch sales here for 1.5 years and I have never been asked to make cold calls, have a call night, or act outside of moral guidelines. This bank does not offer bonuses or commission on sales of deposit or credit products but do pay a slightly higher wage because of it. They do promote from within for driven individuals (I have been promoted twice in my time here).

Cons

Because this bank does not thrive on a competitive atmosphere, you will be bored some days. But honestly it is worth being bored so that the burn out rate is lower.
