Former Employee – worked at Union Bank N.A. full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – The majority of the people working at Union Bank are genuine, hard working, invested in the company and helpful. Overall, the company seems to want to promote star contributors and compensates accordingly. Excellent benefits with flexibility.

Cons – Many groups are short staffed so workload can be heavy. Much of senior management is top notch - very few bad eggs. Management styles vary greatly among the different divisions.

Advice to Senior Management – Pay attention to how many people are going out on leave and watch the trends of groups and how many people are being let go or quitting - this is an indication there is something wrong and management must be held accountable for the bad morale and high turn-over.

Current Employee – been working at Union Bank N.A. full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Competitive pay, easy for tenured employees to keep their job (unless branch closures prevent that)

Cons – Sr Management is floundering in this low rate environment. Rates and regulations have DRASTICALLY cut profits, Sr managements pursues non-sensical initiatives and abandons them part way, such as scrapping a multi-BILLION dollar systems update after realizing it was not compatible with any of our existing systems, (whoops?) Mid-management continues to turn up the pressure and stress, while handing down layoffs, announcing branch closures, and setting impossible "stretch" goals and non-stop "campaigns". Morale is at an all time low and doesn't seem to be changing any time soon.

Advice to Senior Management – Step 1: Determine a target market (are we targeting the affluent and understanding the low volume that entails?, or are we mass market realizing quality of client will suffer?). Step 2: learn how to win within that market using excellent service and specific product. Step 3: deploy a plan that sets realistic goals, backed by sufficient marketing, and supported by all departments.
