Pros

Great hours Decent pay Not a large amount of clients (more of a personal feel to banking; not just account #'s)

Cons

Typical sales pressure, management says they want us to look out for the client's best interest but they tell us to try to "sell" everyone a credit card. If you don't "pitch" a product to every client then you are doing it incorrectly.

Pros

Decent benefits, reliable, friendly team but that’s branch specific

Cons

FIX YOUR STAFFING ISSUES!!! You all emphasize work life balance but have us working 6 days a week. If you don’t live in OH, your career opportunities are practically nonexistent. Also- close at 5 on Fridays like a normal bank.
