A great time to be Associated

Pros

Lots of changes going on, but in the end, will be a much stronger company. Slowly investing in talent and systems. Cares about their colleagues and much opportunity for development and advancement.

Cons

Still a lot of talent that could be upgraded. Select departments not as engaged as others as some middle-management has not gotten on board with the new management.

Pros

Your opinions and thoughts are always given consideration. You work with a team of experts who are always available to give you additional training and encouragement. Resources are at the tip of your fingers. The opportunity to grow is tremendous. Direct supervisors and upper level managers are inspirational and knowledgeable. The employees at Associated Bank are a family you have outside your own home.

Cons

Your relationship with your immediate manager really determines if you will be able to grow. All advancement and training courses you are interested in will have to be approved in advance by him or her. By building a strong relationship with your upper management team you will grow quickly. If your relationship with your manager is weak, you will not advance and if so it will be done slowly.

Pros

Less of those bank horror stories. Tellers have an easy job, made even better by implementing scanners at each window. (Scan check, print receipt, you're done). Cookies on Fridays. Most coworkers are great.

Cons

No longer offering direct deposit to non-Associated Bank accounts :(. Closed sales are seemingly impossible (right now we have 30 referrals, none of which have closed). Too many e-mails! Turnover seems to be a problem, particularly at my branch. "Check-ins" or "chats." A 1 on 1 weekly meeting with your manager on how your doing. Also, teller huddles with a banker, which may happen up to 5 days a week. Performance reviews monthly, observations weekly, I think you get the point here. It may just be my branch, but I feel completely suffocated by these things, and I get very tired of seeing my manager's face by the end of the week.
