Pros

The bank tries hard to invest into their own people by providing professional training, seminars, and mentors. Unlike other top retail banks, Union Bank gives opportunities to their own qualified employee's first before anyone else. Things like community involvement, philanthropy, and volunteering is required for every employee who works of the bank. In addition, the networking atmosphere and the company's intranet is what differentiates this bank amongst the other competitors.

Cons

One drawback about Union Bank is that it doesn't formally train their employee's for any sort of certifications. Six Sigma, Financial series, and NMLS certified are the only licenses/certifications I can think that the bank offers/reimburses. Things like getting you Project Management License, technical computer licenses, or any formal training is not offered off the top of my head.

Pros

Monterey Park office is close to Costco, Walmart, and supermarkets, etc. So you can run errant during lunch time...

Cons

Leadership is really lacking. You can be very busy running around doing "work" for your boss but you get no time to work on your real job, or you need to do your job during your own time...

Pros

The people on the line are fantastic people, and many have been there for years, resulting in a strong culture based on security, sincerity, integrity and professionalism.

Cons

The bank is loosing its way as it brings in whole teams who worked together at a former company. This is setting up cronyism, and has just about destroyed the concept of promotion from within. The value on individual competence is being lost in favor of a more statistical approach to management.
