Pros

The pay is fairly good. The pension plan, before it was changed for new employees last October, was fantastic.

Cons

The most extreme politics I have ever encountered. Nepotism at its finest. Senior management only hires their friends. All positions are hired from outside the company creating no growth potential from within. The morale is abominable. The old Union Bank was great, but it is in the past. Employees can't be trusted and will stab you in the back because of self preservation, protecting their jobs. The bank plans to fire all the employees on the original pension plan as they get more expensive and build seniority. They hire management from top 10 banks with big egos as opposed to qualifications.

Pros

Hard to find many pros as it comes down to really who you work with. I was unfortunate to work with a bunch of negative folks who made it even more miserable to be at work everyday. Some of the customers you work with however make it worthwhile

Cons

Low pay, essentially little to no benefits, not much room for growth in the company. Everyone is so focused on their personal sales goals for their bonus' that they forget to promote and coach to grow their employees
