Pros

Great Benefits package Competitive Pay Good Hours (If you work in a traditional branch) Most of the team members are cool Great for Tellers or someone looking for part time work with job security and benefits

Cons

Unrealistic sales goals Micromanagers who breathe down your neck constantly hounding you for sales Too much paperwork and written reporting to management is required Promises are made to you that you will be promoted if you hit certain (unrealistic) sales numbers then when you hit those numbers you are not promoted. They do not take your tenure with the bank or current economic conditions into consideration. If you're not blowing the unrealistic numbers out of the water then you dont get promoted, and constantly get threatened to be demoted or laid off.

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
