Competitive pay, good full time benefits, relatively easy job.

Majorly sales oriented despite their attempts to say it's not, too much turnover, inconsistent and unfair scheduling that benefits management more.

We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with feedback on your experience as a Personal Banker in St. Louis. Our Personal Bankers are expected to hit monthly sales goals monthly and that should have been made clear during the interview process. We apologize if this was not the case and we’d like to hear more about the lack of opportunity for coaching and development. Please email us at jobs@commercebank.com so we can understand the challenges you are facing and how we can help.

Lots of talk but little action - behind the times

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people and overall culture of the organization. Business areas and and some of senior leadership are very solid. Does the right things for the customer.

Cons

Lots of talk of innovation, agile approach and trying new things but it is mostly talk. Very behind the times in most areas of HR/People policies. Little or very few development opps unless you are one of the few chosen ones. Limited if any enablement or empowerment of employees, especially managers. Lots of "yes" people who only do what they are told by senior leadership and those that aren't "yes" people are berated or slowly pushed out of the org.
