Pros
Commerce Bank provides a diverse and inclusive environment. Leadership is strong and the Banks leaders care about the success of their team members. There are opportunities for development and promotion, including leadership development. Further, the Bank offers career pathing, mentorship programs, work/life balance and an amazing culture. I would recommend working at Commerce. It is by far the best employer I have ever worked for.
Cons
Salaries could be more competitive. The Bank has been improving in this area and there are plenty opportunities for advancement and lateral moves that can open doors and/or offer higher salaries.

Pros
You can take the majority of Commerce reviews on this site to heart. Commerce really does have a terrific culture (if you exclude a lot of upper management and the corporate jargon you get everywhere in this industry). Your experience will vary greatly depending on what department you're working for. IT seems to be the most flexible. The company is very family focused and allotted time off is great with the addition of purchasing additional vacation time at the beginning of every year.
Cons
As many have stated here, Commerce is not extremely competitive with pay compared to other companies in the financial industry. Personally I pull in about $20k short of the median salary for my position. I'm even a little below the 25th percentile for my position. It's a sacrifice I've been willing to make to this point because of the relaxed work environment and amazing job security. Additionally from an IT perspective and echoed in other comments here, Commerce is extremely slow to adopt and implement new technology. That doesn't make them any different than other companies in the financial industry, in my opinion.

Pros
potential for growth, and management that will help you climb.
Cons
the expectation of working from home post pandemic. To be determined on the final ruling, however the conversation has an archaic tone. must.be.in.office.

Pros
Working here felt like being part of a professional family. There is a good culture here.
Cons
At times it felt like more employees were needed to accommodate customer traffic levels.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Vacation balance each year is nice! Work to life balance is good.
Cons
Too much emphasis on Sales goals, tote around the idea of teamwork but feels really competitive. You can't move up in the company if your sales numbers aren't up and even if your sales numbers are good you still don't get the promotion from many people I've talked to.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Culture is fantastic and pay is about average in this area.
Cons
Large company, sometimes feels hard to navigate the red tape.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Commerce is an established organization with a long-standing positive reputation in the community. Fellow employees were friendly. Leads were provided.
Cons
Very little administrative support - I did almost all of my own paperwork which was unlike other positions I have held as a financial advisor. The technology was antiquated and clunky. Goals for production were unclear.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Commerce Bank has great benefits and the work environment is very busy which is challenging. There is a lot of opportunity for internal growth in this company.
Cons
Very busy and sometimes the customers and employees can cause unnecessary drama. Other than that, it is a really great place to establish a career.

Pros
Lots of vacation time, some managers do care, if you are lucky enough to get one it can be a wonderful place to work.
Cons
Short staffed, zero support, most managers will not help you advance or support you in your role, Micromanaged, managers are expected to observe you constantly and coach every interaction to tell you every sales opportunity you possibly missed, but if there is an angry customer with real banking issues management disappears into their office. Horrible training with high turnover. Incentive is based on customer surveys. Expect to need to call other departments when a customer has an issue and to sit on hold for 30 plus min with an angry customer sitting at your desk staring at you on a daily basis.
