Pros

You will work with some great people in the Chicago market. The benefits are (health, dental, 401K) decent. You can also purchase extra vacation time if your manager approves. Depending on your manager and their clout you can take advantage of the vast array of e-learning's available. Respectable super-regional financial institution that can be a decent stepping stone and pad your resume.

Cons

In no particular order: low salaries for PB/LPBi's, severe micro-management, unattainable goals that are VERY unit driven (think Wells Fargo), very poor quarterly compensation program based off of retail banking product sales it is VERY bad, Investment comp plan is OK but has started to decline over the past 2 yr's, low CEI (customer service score) payouts even though they are a major challenge to get an 'A' consistently, very political in terms of how you can grow your career promotions are given to friends or 'superstar' sales people that close and open checking accounts or out right lie to customers to get them to do what's in the best interest of the banker not the customer.

Pros

Decent benefits, reliable, friendly team but that’s branch specific

Cons

FIX YOUR STAFFING ISSUES!!! You all emphasize work life balance but have us working 6 days a week. If you don’t live in OH, your career opportunities are practically nonexistent. Also- close at 5 on Fridays like a normal bank.
