Former Employee – worked at Bank of America

Pros – They paid a good salary compared to similar jobs elsewhere. Excellent benefits package. Good work environment.
Very good incentive (commission) package.

Cons – Work hours were from 2 pm until 11:30 pm. Even though the salary was decent, it was nothing compared to how much profit the sales associates made for the company.

Advice to Senior Management – Maybe act a little bit more professional. Involve the sales associates in company decisions more often. I often felt like we were excluded from the rest of the bank especially due to our hours of work.

Current Employee – been working at Bank of America

Pros – Close to transit, free parking, decent starting wage

Cons – no trust from management in anything - communication, plans, etc

Advice to Senior Management – trust your people - they aren't looking to get laid off and will help where they can

Former Employee – worked at Bank of America

Pros – The co-workers and the availability of overtime, generous bereavement leave, extensive training and education, very clean and safe work environment

Cons – sales oriented in a customer service environment, very difficult to access personal time off, very inflexible working hours, unreasonable expectations in terms of stats

Advice to Senior Management – Be more direct and specific when conducting an interview. Basically, if a candidate is interviewing for a CSR position be sure to tell them sales are a requirement, not an incentive. Treat employees like people instead of a number. Do not give up hope on employees that make strong efforts to conform, it only discourages them.

Former Employee – worked at Bank of America part-time for more than a year

Pros – I started out as a Teller and I was able to move up to a Sales & Service Specialist. I loved the people that I worked with and the customers. The company offers great benefits and products. The company is also great about promoting internally. As an Army wife, it is a good company since it is easy to transfer to other states.

Cons – There were times when I felt like I was being pushed to sale products that were not a good fit for our customers. There is some downsizing in the company. A huge con for me was having to step down and go back to part-time since my position was filled where I moved. That may not always be the case, but it was a huge con for me.

Advice to Senior Management – Look at where the branch is located and set goals based on that. A customer may not want to drive 30 miles to deposit/ withdraw money. Also, really look at what is being referred, some numbers are made up to by tellers to make themselves look good. That not only is dishonest, but makes the other tellers that are doing their job look bad.

Current Employee – been working at Bank of America full-time for more than 8 years

Pros – Lots of career opportunities at the company, with endless paths to follow and a lot of variety in job options

Cons – Often positions are filled based on who you know through "talent planning" rather than job postings that everyone can apply for. In other cases a position is posted but the recruiter or hiring manager will flat-out tell you that have a candidate in mind but have to go through the motions to post it.
