Pros

I would say that the best reason to be there is the experience. Helping people is great and people always need help with their money, some much more than others. I have also enjoyed the opportunities that Commerce Bank brings before me. When I first started I took advantage of the tuition reimbursement program that they have for any of their employees.

Cons

The challenge in my branch would be the stress that comes from some of my coworkers. It seems like some people are trusted more than others. Recently I feel that my voice is not important. I don't feel this is the case for Commerce Bank as a whole, but I have only worked at one branch.

Pros

None - the pay was well below what I was used to making.

Cons

You can include that if it’s true, but it’s safest to present it as your personal experience rather than implying a medical conclusion or making broader claims about the company. Here’s a revised version: Commerce Bank was the worst place I’ve ever worked. I came into the role with years of experience, confidence, and a strong work ethic, but I left questioning my abilities in a way I never had before. The management style I experienced was disparaging, overly critical, and unsupportive. Rather than feeling coached or developed, I felt constantly torn down. The work environment became so toxic for me that I ultimately sought therapy to cope with the anxiety I experienced surrounding work. My anxiety became severe enough that my healthcare provider increased my medication. No job should have that kind of impact on someone’s mental well-being. I recognize that others may have different experiences, but mine was one of the most damaging professional experiences of my career. I would encourage prospective employees to carefully evaluate the leadership and management culture before accepting a position, as it can make all the difference. This version clearly states your personal experience (“for me,” “I experienced”) without asserting that the company universally causes those outcomes. That makes the review both compelling and more defensible.
