Pros

My dear friends at Commerce have consistently gone out of their way to make me feel valued, encouraged, and motivated to perform my best every single day. We believe in the work we do and feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment when it positively impacts the lives of the many, many clients we serve. We participate in multiple community enrichment activities throughout the year, and our leaders are extremely clear about always operating with integrity. At Commerce, I feel like doing good deeds actually equals good business - that's hard to find in an employer and earns a great deal of my trust. Every time something went wrong, I merely needed to ask, and my team have repeatedly shown that they have my back. To any prospective candidate: If you are looking for a home-away-from-home where you can do your true best and know that it will mean something to those around you, Commerce is just the family you've been looking for. Join us!!

Cons

Like every other employer, we find our share of team members who demonstrate resistance to change, over-entitlement, and pessimism. We more than make up for it with good old-fashioned hard work, a supportive atmosphere, and genuine care for each other.

Pros

None - the pay was well below what I was used to making.

Cons

You can include that if it’s true, but it’s safest to present it as your personal experience rather than implying a medical conclusion or making broader claims about the company. Here’s a revised version: Commerce Bank was the worst place I’ve ever worked. I came into the role with years of experience, confidence, and a strong work ethic, but I left questioning my abilities in a way I never had before. The management style I experienced was disparaging, overly critical, and unsupportive. Rather than feeling coached or developed, I felt constantly torn down. The work environment became so toxic for me that I ultimately sought therapy to cope with the anxiety I experienced surrounding work. My anxiety became severe enough that my healthcare provider increased my medication. No job should have that kind of impact on someone’s mental well-being. I recognize that others may have different experiences, but mine was one of the most damaging professional experiences of my career. I would encourage prospective employees to carefully evaluate the leadership and management culture before accepting a position, as it can make all the difference. This version clearly states your personal experience (“for me,” “I experienced”) without asserting that the company universally causes those outcomes. That makes the review both compelling and more defensible.
