Pros

Great benefits and paid time off.

Cons

Plan to spend at least 43 hours a week at this bank. With the early meetings and long work hours. If you do go over 40 hours , you are required to take an hour and half lunch breaks. There is no coming in late or leaving early. Also, must work around other branches when scheduling pto.

Pros

Decent salary. They were quick about getting you your W-2's at tax time.

Cons

No training was available for technical employees, unless you were part of "old boy" network.

Pros

The past and benefits were head and shoulders above competition. They have a strong corporate culture. You have to "drink the koolaid" to survive.... But it is a good culture. If you want to grow and develop as a banker there is opportunity to learn.

Cons

They want the best so sometimes (ie. Commercial loan officers) they will not hire junior associates internally over experienced external candidates.
