Pros

Great benefits - flexible time off, easy hours. My day always ended at 5. I never had to work weekends and generally was able to get in by 8:30 and take a one hour lunch break.

Cons

old organization - not very diverse or flexible. I found that management wasn't very interested in working with the management development program trainees- rather, I got the impression that management felt we were overpaid and spoiled. The culture in Baltimore is very different from Buffalo. If you want to get ahead in the organization you need to stay in Buffalo where the majority of the firm's management sits.

Pros

Bank Holidays and the vacation time

Cons

They hire knowing there is not enough work to keep you busy, Lack of pay and what they promised to make up for the pay in bonus and OT does not happen. Lack of experienced management who knows what they are doing. QC department that picks on every small detail vs knowing how to get a loan purchased and move on. MOST OF ALL, there is NO training. You are left out in to figure and fend for yourself the M&T Bank way. Lots of useless weekly meetings and the only ones that stay are the long time employees are have no experience working in a "real" mortgage company to know what is right and wrong.
