Pros

I've worked at a few different banks in my career. 1 other large bank as well as a smaller bank. Chase is by far my favorite one. I worked as a Personal Banker and it was great. I always met my sales goals so I guess my answer may be different if I did not meet that goal each month. The compensation on top of salary was the highest of all banks I worked at and the benefits are great. The training was awesome and they give you time to get into your position and learn the system before they give you sales goals. Almost every single person I worked with ended up being a good friend but that obvious differs from branch to branch. They do seem to hire smart people with good attitudes so the bad seeds are few and far. Everyone is very supportive and helpful and Chase is the most technologically advanced bank I've ever been in. It seems most banks are trying to copy or catch up with Chase.

Cons

Sales goals are a pro because of the compensation but also a con. It's pretty stressful when you're having a bad month and they will definitely get on you about it. They do have cold calling nights from time to time depending on your branch sales totals and that is probably the least fun thing about the job. If you have a bad manager than good luck to you but as previously stated their recruitment team does a pretty good job of hiring good people.

Pros

-location & team are important. I had an amazing team and location. Rare, but amazing for making money when aligned. -you can learn the financial industry -reputable company, great CEO -you are highly compensated to win over affluent families banking/wealth/lending relationships.

Cons

-we have 5 managers and each of them get replaced bi-annually. -The management hired does not know anything about finance, yet tasked to manage financial professionals. Zero standards for recruitment. Imagine this: An accounting firm is looking for a new accountant. The manager goes out and hires 5 "accountants" but not a single one of them is a CPA. You think, "how could this happen?" That's JPMC for you. -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS.***
