Pros

The pay was decent and you can rise fairly fast in regards to your career path, otherwise not much else.

Cons

Sales environment for a "bank job" had become quite stressful between the start and finish of my tenure (4 years) - due to the lack of capital Guaranty has been failing to raise. This sort of failure at the top of the company has cascaded down to the branch level where immense pressure is put on everyone from the sales associates to the branch managers to reach unrealistic sales goals. If you don't believe me, just mention sales around a Guaranty Bank branch employee, or check their rating on bankrate.com in regards to capital levels. Consequently, their heavy sales focus has led to a breakdown in customer service company wide, so much so, that in quarterly, which were once monthly assistant manager meetings, we had to take time to discuss our "service issues and how we might improve upon them."
