Pros

Sharp, hard working team members; conservative bank which has served them well over the past few years, a lot of different areas which provide opportunities to learn, people who sincerely want to do right by the customer and who deliver their best effort.

Cons

Very bureaucratic, death by meetings, very complex, highly matrixed business model - often not very effective. So much effort is put into meetings, powerpoint decks, buy-in (from an ever-expanding group of stakeholders) etc., it's a shame to see such talent wasted. Understandable that an organization of it's size and regulatory visibility needs to move cautiously, but like many big companies it takes forever to implement any meaningful change.

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!
