Family atmosphere - Anonymous employee Peoples Bank (KS) Employee Review

I love the company great king

Terrible services, arrogant people hate great

The company has great values. They don't believe in trying to shove a product or service down a consumers throat like some other banks. The employees will actually go out of their way to do random acts of kindness. The work environment is good for the most part.

The only reason people get jobs is so they can support themselves financially. This can be hard to do at Peoples. You start out at $10.50/ per hour as a "Personal Banker", but in reality you are a Teller. Annual raises can maybe get you an extra .30/ hr. They always tell you at your initial interview that there is room for growth and opportunity to advance, but what does that mean? Well, on the retail side there are 3 positions. Personal Banker 1(Teller), Personal Banker 2(teller + account opening role) and then the management position (store manager/assistant manager). Which sounds okay at first but you don't actually get a raise from PB1 to PB2. Supposedly you get a .50/hr raise when you become a PB2 but i never saw that happen while i was employed. Even if it did it wouldn't be comparable to an account opening role at other banks..
