Pros

Decent benefits, but have increasingly become too expensive. Vacation and sick time is separate and may roll over (depending on which state you work in). 401k match is ok, but they only pay it in a lump sum the following year, so you miss out on earnings.

Cons

- Too big to function well. Having 6-8 different corporate goals/themes renders teams ineffective. - Executive management is out of touch with the reality of employees. - Parental leave package only looks good on paper. If you use it, you are either mommy-tracked or your position is eventually eliminated. - They keep employees with bad reviews and target employees with good reviews. - Giving bad reviews to managers and/or in corporate employee surveys yields no results. Middle management is ineffective and coasts to retirement. HR just sends you back to your manager, so there is no recourse. - The company only cares about violations that would get them flagged by the SEC. They do not care about employees with real internal issues. - They re-org every 1.5 years or so. Lots of layoffs and never have a chance to get things to done. - No talent retention. They keep people with bad reviews and no experience, and get rid of experienced, educated, qualified employees.

Pros

Working at U.S. Bank has given me the opportunity to build real relationships with members of my community. Every day is different, and helping customers from all walks of life navigate important financial decisions is genuinely rewarding. The coworkers within my branch have been supportive, collaborative, and some of the best people I've had the chance to work with. The company also offers solid health insurance benefits and a competitive incentive program for employees who meet performance goals.

Cons

The sales culture has become increasingly difficult to navigate. What was once a collaborative, team-oriented environment has shifted toward an "everyone for themselves" mentality, creating unnecessary internal competition. As a Client Relationship Consultant, the pressure to constantly produce sales can be mentally exhausting. Even high-performing employees often feel that their efforts are never enough, which can lead to burnout and low morale. Leadership often emphasizes metrics over people, making employees feel more like numbers than valued team members. The customer service aspect of the job is incredibly fulfilling, but the relentless focus on sales goals can overshadow that purpose and ultimately diminish employee satisfaction. At times, working here can feel like trying to earn approval from a parent who is never quite satisfied—no matter how hard you work.
