Pros

High starting salaries for bankers Good communication from HR and leadership Build great relationships with customers They value long term customers a lot Great work life balance, off work everyday by 5:15.

Cons

Promotions are 5-10 years away for most job positions, and even then you are battling it out with 50+ other extremely qualified inside potential hires. No commission structure what so ever and the bonus's based on your numbers are absolutely awful. They use that to try and get employees to work harder, however if you work extremely hard, you can expect to earn an extra $250 a year vs if you put in no effort. The bonuses also track your "primacy and retention" however they add customers to your numbers that open their accounts online and when you can't reach them and they overdraw their account and close it, it hurts your chance at the bonus.

Pros

Good work environment. Management can be good depending on your branch. Can make lots of close friends.

Cons

Very sales-focused. Does not matter if customer does not qualify for credit cards, loan, etc., you have to put the application in to meet quota. And the occasional rude customer.
