Pros

From 2004 - 2011 this was the best company I had ever worked for. It was as happy, professional and fair a place as you could of hoped for. Like listening to Audrey Hepburn sing "Moon River" - peaceful and joyful. The best firm I had worked at since college - by far. Then... the music... stopped. Enter the soundtrack for Titanic.

Cons

Once MUFG took the company private in 2011 things went south - fast. They gutted management to the bone - and then began to saw away... Firing great people and leaving the B-team to continue the show. They killed a great, great thing. A wonderful company is now a soulless ship heading - nowhere.

Pros

There are no Pros except is a regular pay check.

Cons

Management is incompetent. They lay off people on a regular basis suggesting it is a restructuring issue. Supervisors with no experience. Every year the benefits are taken from the employees. This is not an employee friendly environment.

Pros

Pay, that's it. If you're coming from a big bank they will offer a nice salary to lure you in. Then they smack you in the face with stupidity almost instantly after starting. If you are the kind of person who is "just happy to have a job" you will thrive here as long as you want to put up with pitiful supervision and management. THE BEST PLAY HERE is to use them as a stepping stone. Get a salary bump out of them and then leave. Quickly.

Cons

Supervision. Management. Training. Leadership. They can't keep talented people. Your co-workers will be nice enough, but most hate their job and actively try to work as little as possible each day. If you have a work ethic, this bank is going to frustrate you. It's not just a department or two, it's throughout the bank. I wont even touch on how horrible it will be for you if you work in a branch. Thank goodness I did not.
