Associated Bank reviews

In-store relationship bankers get shafted until they are promoted. The hours working in the grocery store location is hardly ideal (Holidays, Sundays, and open till 7pm during the week). Expect to earn less money than the bankers at the traditional branches too. It is next to impossible for the grocery store bankers to reach goals and thus earn any commission (Currently there are only ~2 in-store bankers in the entire company that reach monthly incentives compared to almost 50% of all traditional bankers). And don't expect to be able to transfer to a traditional branch. Unless you are one of the two in-store bankers in the company that meet the arbitrary incentive goal they won't allow you to transfer if you can't meet your monthly incentive goals.

Turnover is high in branch management and other positions. I'm not sure why but I guess everyone wants to get paid more and that keeps the turn rate fairly high. As with any job your direct supervisor or manager can make it a great place to work or a not so great place to work. If you get a bad manager just hold on for a year or two and they generally move on. Another annoyance is that we were told to start unlocking the doors early and leave then unlocked late so that customers can get there early and stay late. I understand that you want to be flexible but that is what ATM machines are for. Customers could pick up the phone and make an appointment or let us know they were running late and we would accommodate without having everyone stick around on a daily basis. Commission structures are always changing. Sometimes they are obtainable and other times they are impossible to meet.
