Pros

Entry level financial sales, no real experience needed

Cons

You will spend most of your time on the teller line. The attitude is sell, sell, sell...while there is little concern for the sub-par products and crappy customer support.

Pros

- They offer a good salary - They have plenty of teams spread into 4 buildings. If you can't get along with your team, they will relocate you so hard that you'll think you changed companies. - If you're not in a coolgen team, great learning opportunities - They pay for overtime

Cons

- If you're hired as a Coolgen programmer, your skills will be useful for very very few companies around the world. Also, your knowledge about other platforms and general CS will diminish over time. - Word of the boss is law. Even if hundreds of employees dispute a high ranking manager, they won't be able to sway them. - Paying for overtime weaved overtime into company's culture. Project planning is made with the assumption that you'll be staying in the evenings. Sometimes people stay just for the extra cash. - You're kind of expected to work overtime. If you're an efficient person who never needs to work overtime, you'll still look lazy. - They are very, very, resistant to change. It might require a lot of persistence to use some newer technologies in a project. - Some key divisions are understaffed and you get very slow responses. - If you are not a new graduate, They divide your years of experience by half. It makes getting promoted very hard. Also this is a condescending attitude if you ask me.

Pros

Great benefits, vacation, 401k.

Cons

Anything for a buck, prone to decision making based solely on P&L without regard to human compassion and responsibility. Upper management can be untrustworthy and disconnected to front line job families. Poor leadership on this regional level. On a customer level, widespread bureauracracy and difficult to resolve serious problems. A lack of responsibility for problem ownership. Always a meeting or conference call or training and then they wonder why the manager isn't in the banking center-disconnected sometimes to logic. Never put a customer first and miss a training or conference call that will impact an impression on your DM! Clients are not priority.
