Pros

Better than other banks in Boston, which have become sweatshops. You get a $20 free gift every month if you keep some balance and pay some bills using your debit card.

Cons

CEO, CRO change every 6 months or 1 year. If they fail CCAR this year, they have to close their business in USA. Bunch of old employees with no knowledge of banking industry or securities experience are still hanging in there making it incompetent.

Pros

Training was well structured and well delivered. I met some good people there, and still have friends that work there. The on-site canteen (if your shift allowed you to go there) was quite good, albeit quite small.

Cons

- Terrible shift patterns; usually going from 1pm-9pm to 7am-3pm shifts the next week. - 2 days off per week, but it would consist of one weekday and one weekend day. You were given 1 our of 4 full weekends off as your 2 days. - Parking was terrible. There were so many things wrong with their parking. - The job itself wasn't enjoyable. After being there for a while you got trained to deal with customers' charges, which meant receiving verbal abuse from customers on an almost daily basis. There's a whole host of other issues with the Sheffield site, but I think I've covered enough.
