Pros

I had a chance to work with some great people.

Cons

During my time with the company, I was always a top performer in my branch. I spent almost 3 years there. Probably half of that time was without a Branch Leader. One leader literally took credit for work he didn't do, violated some huge HR issues, and was transferred to not one, but two different branches. I asked multiple times for a promotion to Senior Banker (denied each time), and a raise (denied). The fact that I was told performance is a big factor, for decisions on promotions and raises, was a slap in the face as I was always a top producer in my branch even up to my last day, where I locked in a credit card for over 10K, and a HELOC for 55K just a week before, I was responsible for a lot of new business clients, from referrals from other business clients I've helped. Oh did I mention, I know I played a direct role in the branch reaching our quarterly goal twice without a manager. Also, I was constantly called upon to help cover other branches (even had keys to a second branch), yet I wasn't good enough for a raise/promotion. Also, it seems they are making it harder and harder to reach full incentive goals, as they keep adding different reasons to dock incentives, some of which are just outrageous.

Pros

Great benefits and pay with very good training programs, lots of opportunities for growth

Cons

The culture struggles to figure itself out after the big merger. Lots of senior employees were bitter about younger/new hires getting paid well. Lots of dealing with hierarchal mindsets that get in the way of the actual work.
