Pros

Large, well established company. Ability to make good commissions. Company has a good retirement plan (401K) with a great match (6%). Bank officers receive 21 days of vacation time (can never take any of it though). Company has many locations and until recently, plenty of opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Company reputation is highly unstable right now, and public perception is not good. Also, commissions are constantly being cut, or "refocused". 401K funds are not the best to choose from, and company does not match for the first year. Very difficult to take days off with this company. Going through a hiring contraction, which hurts advancement opportunities. BIG TIME MICRO-MANAGERS!!!!!
