Commerce Bank Employee Reviews about "work life balance"

Pros

Loans is one of the easiest departments to work in. Co-workers on immediate team are extremely helpful if you need it.

Cons

Communication between different loan departments is horrible. (SOME) Management is not a great example of being a leader. Work/life balance for reps are not important Growth is hard to come by

Pros

Work life balance is allowed

Cons

Low pay and very little raises

Pros

401k is good, insurance okay, love the people I work with.

Cons

Parental leave is poor, pay is not competitive with the market. Upper management is not understanding nor flexible with home circumstances. Constantly playing a game with risking getting trouble at work or taking care of myself and my children. Hospital excused absences still count towards absence counseling unless you are admitted overnight. Unattainably high sales goals compared to the points per product. No pleasing management, you either meet your buckets, meet your cara, or meet your points. Never all 3. Work life balance is not optimal when you are working overtime every week. I have been told to reschedule surgeries for my children because it didn't work with the schedule because turnover rate is SO high.

Pros

A lot of long tenured people at the bank, and it used to proudly be attributed to company stability, culture, work life balance, and you espoused these benefits and more. However, over the last year plus the work life balance has been destroyed and it’s become a broadly discussed concern of many senior IT developers. This has become the new norm and gone on for so long it’s affected the culture. The resulting effect is many are looking for other opportunities and we’ve already begun losing people.

Cons

Low Pay Hard To Retain Good Bankers Archaic Processes in Operations HR Red Tape

Pros

I got to work with some really great people in other departments. The location of the office was nice and centrally located. Work life balance is good and easy going. Also, banker holidays are a nice perk.

Cons

There is not a lot of career advancement opportunities so don't expect anything fast. There are a lot of people who have been there for 10, 20+ years and are just trying to coast to retirement so that does not help. Also the management leaves a lot to be desired and the corporate culture is somewhat toxic with a lot of favoritism and a lot of shunning of new ideas. The company just keeps adding more layers of management that makes it more difficult to get things done. Management in my department was really disorganized and generally not approachable.
