Bad Tasting Experience; Even Worse Operation
Pros
Decent amount of Paid Time Off (when actually granted); Occasional generous rewards from upper management for meeting sales goals (1 or 2 per year).
Cons
Unnecessary verification of family situation and allocation of benefits; All requests for promotion were either rebuffed or ignored, always with some excuse (eg: "you only made 99% of your sales goal last quarter, that's not high enough for promotion"); Daily branch operations were improvised and lacking structure; Punished with extra job tasks for using PTO; Legitimate complaints & escalations were made to HR, only to be forgotten later on; Bad management causes unstable relationships between branch employees, and never any resolutions from HR; Constantly understaffed, with constant employee call-outs for dishonest reasons; Employees abusing overtime, never getting caught nor punished; Often unfair treatment of good employees, while evidently rewarding the bad ones; Scheduling and days off were always incompetently arranged by management; PTO was never granted as per the wishes of the employee, due to poorly-made excuses by management; Management was consistently absent from the branch, yet increasingly demanding of sales & customer service goals; Training of various tasks was mediocre or non-existent; Estimated start time of menial job tasks became expedited without warning; Inconsistent scheduling of activities (Holiday-related, etc. events were always cancelled, deferred or postponed); Longer working hours than any other bank. The list goes on and on…
