Pros

The benefit are very good. they are very structured and have a very set professional development program. If you enjoy working with people, its a great job for you.

Cons

There is a very structured conversation that you are expected to have with every client- no individuality. The managers micro-manage to the nth degree!

Pros

Good initial training. Opportunity to learn banking without prior experience. Feedback on performance is exemplary

Cons

Pay is ridiculous in how low it is Commissions are a joke. Why even pay them? Company is continually looking for ways to increase sales production while lowering commissions Like most banks now -- it's hard to do business, even with great clients Sick time is a joke. Unless you have a note, like a second grader, you are not allowed to call in sick. It is suggested that you schedule sick days in advance. I've also been told that the company does not want or frown upon employees using them.

Pros

good experience, learn about numerous businesses, exposure to executive clients, job security. Overall a great job because you can learn about the business, its just a little tough to move up the chain fast.

Cons

Salary growth is pretty minimal unless you press hard for a raise / promotion. Also there doesnt seem to be much recognition for people that work harder than others.
