Shockingly Low Pay for a Bank Role

Associate financial representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I was fortunate to work with a solid team, because many others were clearly struggling in silence.

Cons

- The pay is unbelievably low for a position in a bank. - Even with solid experience in the same field, you are given the same compensation as someone just starting. - The work pulls a heavy toll and leaves you worn down day after day. - You must stay cautious around certain colleagues, since kindness is far from guaranteed in this place.
