Pros

The benefits are wonderful. Being affiliated with a banking institution we have many government holidays off. The hours are not too bad. No weekends, minimal travel.

Cons

The challenges of working here is that it is a very slow-paced environment. I am used to a very fast-paced schedule and find myself quite bored some days

Pros

Good company that likes to promote from within. A hard worker can build a great career. There are a number of great options for for getting more education as, at the time, the company was paying almost 75% of tuition costs. That's unheard of in today's economy!

Cons

Slow to change and salary management is a little weird.
