Pros

Ability to learn about finance and credit system.

Cons

Favoritism, every quarter your IC plan or commission payouts will change to benefit executives and lessen what is paid out. Payroll/Back office will purposely delay certain things on commission payouts, change policies and is not honest about their payout system to bankers and branch managers. Not including absolutely no growth opportunities, and if they are provided they will require you to go through hell to take one step upward.

Pros

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Cons

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
