Pros

If you are in need of a stable job or work experience. Otherwise, it would be advisable to start your career in credit analysis/lending elsewhere or in an entirely different field such as investing banking (if you are ambitious enough). Also, as far as banks go, US Bank is probably the most conservative with its lending policies, so don't expect it to post huge losses and go through rounds of layoffs like other banks have been doing recently.

Cons

The bank has a very conservative compensation policy and there is absolutely no training program for new hires. The people are generally intelligent, but prefer having a flexible lifestyle to making large sums of money. This may be a positive thing for some people, but I find that working with people who have relatively low expectations for their careers can drag down your own morale/expectations.

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.
