Pros

Cheap benefits, good 401K and steady job

Cons

There is not a training program in place so it's sink or swim... mostly sink. Management doesn't really look out for those of us on the front lines that actually deal with our clients. The benefits are inexpensive to you as an employee but don't cover very much such as vision only covers a visit (no lenses, frames, contacts or corrective surgery).

Pros

Team sales goals. Without the high pressure sale that most banks have.

Cons

Lack of training; lack of clear procedures; poor communication and low pay with little opportunity to increase.
