Pros

Very few people I work with were pleasant

Cons

•treated like a child even though given leadership position • talked down and less of a person especially if you speak they will bully you to quit or find a way to fire you. •high turn over because there’s no work life balance they want you there everyday or you owe explanation to your whereabouts. • min of 3 calls a week that are repetitive some weeks can be up to 5 calls that last for one to two • they won’t hire you if you show up 5 mins or late to interview but none of their meetings start on time there’s always technical issues and the speakers are unprepared or say what am I talking about no substance just want to micromanage •if the branch isn’t producing it is your fault even though the target old clients with no products to intrigue new generations or regular people just wealthy and older clients •ask for feedback but doesn’t take it unless it doesn’t make them change too much example will be you make a suggestion they tell you why they do what they do and move on • micromanage you must be a yes person or you’ll be on the mean girls list •very rude emails, looking for someone to blame when customers complain, you are guilty until proven innocent. •gossip about employees tale tellers to be teacher pets about cell phones even though this min customer interaction, very small campaign list, and turnover to the point where you can’t get out to get sales •pay is bottom of the barrel employees who are here don’t know that there’s better opportunities as most of them this is their first bank jobs •no development you better make sales or you will be fired soon no one is coming to help you •anonymous surveys are not anonymous •employees are scarred to speak up

Pros

Most supervisors are exceptional - helpful, and willing to help you get ahead.

Cons

I drew the short straw. I have perhaps the single worst supervisor I’ve ever had in 20 years of working. This person is always negative, and looking for things to complain about. I hate coming to work. This is not a professional department, and it seems that their superiors ignore it due to their tenure.
