Pros
- Easy entry level for a banking career (including interviews) - They have a job fair every week for a variety of positions. - Sufficient (more or less) training. - Decent to somewhat good benefits. - Possibility of increasing your income with commissions.
Cons
- Very high turnover, main reason why they have a job fair every week, with the positions of tellers and sales associates being the main objective as the majority of tellers and sales associates do not last more than 10 months. All the branches are usually understaffed, especially on customer heavy days, which causes customers to leave the branches in a bad mood. - Very oriented on sales and account generation, you need to meet a goal at the end of the month even if you have to sell accounts to friends and family to reach that goal. - Very low pay, especially for the tellers. - Don't expect higher management to back you up, one mistake and you are gone. - If you are stationed at a slow branch that only has a couple of regular customers, the possibility of raising your income with commissions is almost close to zero.
