U.S. Bank – “US Bank-a leader in the banking world.”

Pros

Richard Davis and executive management have always made sound and conservative decisions that have ensured that US Bank maintained a strong capital base and remained able to compete in the current environment. Mr. Davis can be proud that US Bank did not participate in many of the activities that have virtually destroyed some of the largest banks in the country. US Bank is also a leader in developing and marketing new banking products.

Cons

Compensation is not as competitive as other financial institutions. As with any large institutions, operations are regionally decentralized and the opportunity to advance is there only if you are willing to move, sometimes great distances.
