Pros

Currently, the only positive attribute at this Company are the Co-workers.

Cons

I have worked at Dollar Bank for nearly 20 years and am highly disappointed and discouraged with the direction it has taken. The environment has greatly changed. The Branch Administration has become unsupportive micro-managers, and taking away the work- life balance that Dollar once held the edge over competitors. There's no question that Dollar Bank does not pay nearly what the competitors do, but I have always thought of it as a trade off; less pay for less stress and better work-life balance. Sadly, this is no longer the case. Aggressively sales driven, taking away branch independence and limiting employees requests of PTO. There is a lack of staff in branches, causing them to constantly reallocate employees to other branches. If you refuse, or are unable to accommodate their requests, they will become passive aggressive with that/those employee(s), and even the branch as a whole. I hate to think of this, but after 19 years of my dedication, investment and loyalty to the Bank, I feel forced to look at other companies.

Pros

Plenty of opportunity at dollar for growing your knowledge and experience. Leadership does care about their people and there is a a fair bit of access to executive management. Benefits are pretty good with insurance, gym reimbursement, 401k match and other things.

Cons

Performance incentives are sorely lacking here. If you are a high performer, you get the same performance incentive distributed into your 401k as someone who is average. Management also has a track record of adding responsibilities but not necessarily increasing compensation. The other main item is that the majority of employees have started and stayed at dollar. Coming in externally with difference experiences can be challenging.
