Pros

The ability to gain a wide base of knowledge regarding banking and financial business. Large company that provides several different career paths. The potential to earn good bonuses.

Cons

The company's culture is completely contradictory to the companies Mission Statement. High stress sales environment. Ethically questionable work environment. You will be expected to push products that may not be in the best financial interests of the client. Management will turn a cheek to unethical sales and sales manipulation tactics because it benefits them. The incentive goals are extremely difficult to hit. Low pay in general. The only recognition you receive is regarding sales. Any other work is irrelevant.

Pros

brand recognition and descent benefits

Cons

almost impossible to commission, inadequate base pay in relation to the qualifications they desire. branch managers are not always qualified. focus is on solutions so if you are to succeed, you are not always likely to do what's best for the customer. this is a true retail environment...what's on sale today, sell sell and sell some more, doesn't matter if its not in the client's best interest although management would tell you 'tell' you otherwise.
