Pros

Benefits were good and the 401(k) match was good. Being able to dress casually all the time was great and all the bank holidays were a bonus to the vacation time.

Cons

Once you are properly trained plan on working a lot of hours. M &T’s new structure includes working all employees to the max. They say they are only concerned with their employees but they will hire only 3 people to do what 7 employees should do. Raises are non existent unless you are in their management program.

Pros

decent pay for the location

Cons

Management is rife with "old timers" who graduated with an english degree in 1970 and have no idea how any industry works outside of this bank, So much bad mouthing in the office, you don't even want to go to work. All about pleasing management and telling them exactly what they want to hear. Thats why M&T bank will never be a well known bank outside of Buffalo, they can call themselves "global" all they want.
