Pros

They ease their bankers into the position, decent training Good colleagues in branch

Cons

They kept cutting FTE. We always felt short staffed even when we were considered fully staffed. Impossible sales goals. They tell you it's all about taking care of the customer, then give you goals you can never meet. Just taking care of the customer is never enough. They cut employees with seemingly no warning. Management has little control of making a bad situation better because of higher ups. You are taught that everything is in your control, even things that are simply not in your control, and then punished for what you had no control over. Sometimes your sales numbers hurt just because you truly did the right thing by the customer. And if you need to move to a new area within their footprint, don't expect them to help you to transfer to a new location. I had a great manager but there was only so much they could do for me.
