Pros

Great hours, no Saturday's, off by five every day except every other Friday off at 6. Employees are given a lot more responsibility per job role, as branches are often times less busy than some of the bigger banks. Some people don't like that, but it's all out of laziness-- I appreciate it because I get more experience, do different things all the time, so it keeps things different each day rather than redundant days and weeks.

Cons

The base pay is less than some other banks depending on your position. But you can (theoretically) earn up to 50% of your salary in commission. You won't actually get that much, but you can earn quite a bit in commission if you and your branch works hard.
