Pros

Great benefits and opportunities to move within the company. Most employees are great to work with and have a willingness to learn the banking industry and help customers. US Bank does have a great training program for incoming employees not yet accustomed to the banking world or that are fresh out of college. There are plenty of opportunities to move within the company so if you are completely unhappy with your current position you have the opportunity to move. Not only positions but other branches. I started out at a branch and became very unhappy with my immediate management and moved to a similar position at another branch.

Cons

Very poor hourly pay and sales bonuses are on a points system. Don't expect to make it big with US Bank or pile up the savings account working here. This bank pays so crappy it creates a terrible turnover rate for employees that are willing to learn then move on to a similar position with a competing bank for better pay. That creates an atmosphere with a lot of talent, unfortunately most employees at US Bank are far from seasoned. Most customers are going to need to speak with a manager if they want to talk with an employee with some history. US Bank has incredible amounts of fees for everything and it only seems to be getting worse. Before moving locations it almost got to the point where I was getting so accustomed to the customer complaints I had automatic responses.

Pros

Laid back production work in an office setting. Great management.

Cons

Steep learning curve for the machines. Can be frustrating as machinery only works for about a minute before you have to make adjustments.

Pros

The pay is market average, and the benefits are quite good. I love my peers. The vast majority of them are kind and talented people. I truly enjoyed my first several years with the company. Well past the honeymoon period for a new employer. And at the time, I recommended this place to anyone I knew looking for a job.

Cons

Management is a mess from the bottom up. The culture of the company has drastically changed over the last several years because of frequent retirements, layoffs, and reorganizations. Employees I know from across describe the same experience: the company has gone from outstanding culture to one that feels openly hostile to its employees. Management decisions are built like cudgels and enforced through all stick and no carrot.
