Good company to work for. People are treated fairly and tend to stay in the bank. Average salaries are lower than others

Pros

Social life is a key element

Cons

Lack of risk appetite, lack of flexibility. Numerous people are only evolving because they stay for a long time rather than by pure merit.

Pros

You don't have to work nights or Sundays. You get a bonus every quarter as long as you make sales goals.

Cons

The pay and small quarterly bonus is not worth the stress of the high sales goals. The managers are constantly breathing down your neck to find (or make up) sales for customers even when nothing is needed. Even after you finally meet your sales goals for the quarter, you are still constantly lectured to get more and more or you are just not good enough. Plus every month you get these tedious and time consuming assignments that you must complete while trying to deal with customers in the meantime. Honestly, if I didn't have to worry about the stressful sales, and just worry about customer service, it wouldn't be a bad job. When I go to the bank, I don't want to be asked about getting a savings account or if I have insurance every single time. I just want to do my transaction and get out. Advice to Senior Management
