Pros

Co-workers, helping the public, and slightly above average compensation for industry.

Cons

HEAVY sales pressure/micro-managing culture from board of directors level down to the lowest employee. Things weren't always like this. The company that was once known for it's culture has now become like every other big 5 bank.

Pros

Good benefits, fairly positive work culture and friendly people

Cons

Slow and bureaucratic, compensation seems slightly lower than market. A little too promotional on the positive impacts the organization has with questionable justification for such claims…
