Pros

My direct coworkers and manager are amazing.

Cons

Upper management is out of touch with its employees. They praise they offer a work life balance but just took away our in WFH flexiblity. Just 1 day allowed to WFH each week. As a parent, I start later as I get my kids on the bus. With this extra commute time, I wont get home until late 4 days a week which doesnt work for multiple reasons. I also belong to extra curricular actvities. I have to quit supporting those small businesses as I no longer have the time to attend those classes.

Pros

The team members were generally supportive, and the role offered exposure to probate and estate administration. It can be a starting point for gaining experience in a specialized area of banking.

Cons

Many of the advertised benefits of the role did not align with the day-to-day reality. Opportunities for growth, training, and process improvement were limited, and the workload often felt driven by volume rather than quality. Communication and expectations could be inconsistent, making it difficult to feel supported or set up for long-term success.
