Pros

KeyBank has good benefits and start off with great vacation time. They promote within the branches if you want to move to a different position.

Cons

They eliminated the customer service manager position which was the only position that knew how to do all jobs in the branch. The company would have been better off eliminating the branch manager position since that position was only responsible for their employees which on average was about five people. That position was also the highest paying position so eliminating that position would have saved the company more money that eliminating the CSM position.

Pros

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Cons

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
