Pros

-Job Stability - as long as you achieve the basic activities your job is secure -Good pay and benefits compared to alot of other employers -Vacation time in your first year -I am fortunate to have a very good manager -Achievers recognition program - although very hard to earn -Very competitive products and services -Can be proud to sell investments and mortgages as we offer best on the street

Cons

Focus is on sales - sometimes client experience comes second -Of couse would like to make more money and earn more vacation,.... -Some managers are not good - unwilling to stand up to middle and upper manager on targets or goals that are un-attainable -Bonuses could be bigger / and given quarterly -Removal of support roles in branch - more work being added onto staff that remain -Outbound calls are a focus -- which I understand - but often calling the same clients over and over --- gets frustrating -Company often looks outside own talent pool to higher outside the bank when they have qualified candidates
