Pros

Training is pretty good all around, from service, to regulations, to sales. Back office puts together generally good campaign lead lists to call for sales which can greatly benefit the customer. You have the potential to help people and make a bit of commission, but you have to use the tools that the company provides to do the work. Good support from inside the company between branch management and help line. Company seems to always be growing and making a profit. Good work/life balance - manager gave me free paid (non-vacation) day off to allow me to move. Sometimes they have sales contests for paid time off.

Cons

You can potentially spend a lot of time on the phone calling for sales. Management pushes sales hard. A lot of the work can feel like a waste of time. It's customer service, so you end up dealing with a lot of unhappy customers. Experiences are different in different locations.

Questionable leadership and decision-making.

Pros

Decent pay, training and benefits, but production goals are unrealistic.

Cons

The computer system is slow and antiquated and takes valuable time away from trying to hit the unrealistic sales goals. Turnover of staff, from tellers to business bankers, is very high compared to other banks and an observant person can see that management is the reason why the staff is nervous and unhappy. Mistakes, no matter how inconsequential, are not forgiven and will be held against you. Hard work and good performance does little to reverse the damage. Do not voice concerns to management, even when they ask you for your honest feedback, because it will come back to bite you. Gossip is prevalent, management does little to discourage it, and is sometimes the source of it. As a whole, the company is good and these comments are reflective of the dysfunctional Orlando management.

Shifting Landscape - Small Bank to Large Bank

Pros

Solid training program. Decent benefits. Some banking perks but nothing that is out of the ordinary. Depending on the leadership, can create a community banking feel in large markets.

Cons

Constantly shifting focuses take away from the training provided. Programs and goals set from headquarters with not much consideration for different markets it operates in.
