Brookline Bancorp Reviews

Pros

Pay was good and location was convenient

Cons

Hostel environment upper management does not care about ones concerns or feelings.

Pros

Customer Focused bank w/ flexibility to help customer Sales are "team focused" and not super high pressure. Ability to structure your day for highest output on the banking side. Most managers at the branch and department heads seem to be good to work for.

Cons

Pay can fall behind if not diligent about asking for raises/promotions. Sometimes goals seem out of touch with what is going in the market. Technology is definitely behind the curve. Training and professional development can be improved.

Pros

I'm challenged on a regular basis to do good work. The training is comprehensive and my manager structures it in a way to help me grow. As the bank is expanding there is plenty of opportunity to go around. My salary is good as there is room for expansion there as well

Cons

day starts at 8:30 instead of 9 and some travel

Pros

Smaller teams who work well together. Cross-training is key so others can help when needed. Open and honest feedback is encouraged so obstacles can be overcome and customers can be better served. Workload is more than manageable and manager is fully engaged with day to day tasks but not overpowering at all. It is also important to her that everyone is respectful to each other and enjoys coming to work which creates a nice work environment.

Cons

Ability to work remotely would be beneficial-hopefully an option in the future with system capability.
