Pros

Learning and developing is easily offered

Cons

If you work on the one off of DuPont Rd the manager will not like you if your method of being customers in is different. No matter if you hit goals every month.

Pros

Pay is commensurate with experience & comparable to other banks. Benefits are excellent. They're developing a positive culture of work-life balance.

Cons

With any place, some people are there for the wrong reasons or are ill-suited for their role or their manager doesn't dig in to see that they're not doing a good job or they aren't being held accountable.
