Pros

I encountered (mostly) intelligent, friendly, hard working people. The bank promotes diversity, and It also offers matching programs for charitable contributions which is quite generous.

Cons

Technology, process, procedures, and methodology hasn't been revisited since the around the time of the Reagan administration. Painfully inefficient with little to no flexibility for deviation from guidelines.

Pros

Good benefits (vacation, sick) - but used to be better, Still have a pension (rare) - but used to be better. There's still a few shining lights, but they seem to be diminishing quickly.

Cons

New culture prohibits innovation and promotes bureaucracy. Those who try to implement positive change are subjected to the greatest scrutiny while those who display complacency are continuously rewarded.

Pros

Security - Union has been careful about its acquisitions and entries into new markets. They are a stable, long term employer. Competitiveness within the marketplace - Union is able to price their products to be competitive as well as conservative to attract the best customers

Cons

Like many large organizations, Union Bank is highly structured. Decisions are hard to come by some of the time. It would be more efficient to delegate more authority to line units. While the ownership is substantial it sometimes feels disconnected. I have worked for another foreign owned institution and noticed the same element.
