Pros

-Nice people to work with in general. -Can surf the net when not busy. -Can sit down as a teller!

Cons

-Nagging from boss about sales gets old fast! -Not much promotion potential unless you want to move to Alabama for a corporate gig or you want to be a hardcore salesman or manage and motivate the hardcore salesmen in the branches. Basically, you can't move beyond the branch level without moving to AL. -Don't pay the tellers enough compared to the other positions.

Pros

They are investing in technology, to upgrade the systems that the old Compass Bank had thought was brilliant for 20 years.

Cons

The bank has not invested nor developed a strong, collaborative culture. As a result, the culture (treatment of employees, teamwork, comraderie) are at unacceptable levels. In addition: -Excessive times for loan approvals/declines across the board, (i.e. Retail and Commercial) -Lack of ownership or responsibility within the bank -Outdated policies (i.e. Holds on Cashier's checks) that make the Mega-banks of the world look reasonable. -Lack of any career opportunities (anyone want to move to Birmingham to get ahead? Anyone?) -High Goals/Low Pay. Salary levels are generally below market conditions. -Lack of quality systems and branches in good locations and support people.
