The people are great, but the opportunities to grow are very limited.

Pros

The people are friendly and great to get along with. All benefits covered...medical, dental, vision, etc... Great location in the NYC branch.

Cons

Very long hours depending on what group you are in, and compensation does not reflect the hours you are required to work. Overload of work, and not enough employees to spread the work. And no set annual review system in place, leaving the employee aimlessly wondering "Is my hard work going to be rewarded with a promotion of some sort?"

It is a challenging place to work, where every day you learn something new, and is a high stress job.

Pros

One of the benefits is an amazing health care package, free financial help, free accounts and benefits and a fast growing company! Their goal is to be the number one bank in the US in the next 5 years. It's a big company with a small bank feel. Clients are loyal and you see the same people very often so relationship building is great.

Cons

It is not just challenging to work at Compass. The requirements for Branch Associates (tellers) is very high. Not only do you have to give 100% customer service, but your sales goals and expectations are high. You will have to deal with large amounts of cash, fast paced work, and a lot of computer knowledge and speed/accuracy. Also, you will have to learn a lot of operations (back work), rules and regulations, government acts and regulations, and a code of conduct. There is no room for error when dealing with people's financial well-being. You will need to be able to keep confidential information and be very professional. Things like account maintenance, ordering for vaults, having 10+ keys to be responsible for at all times, knowing vault codes, memorizing at least 15 computer passwords, etc is normal. The stress level is very high, especially for the speed of which you have to get things done.

Pros

companiy is genuinely committed to its customers and employees salary is good once at manager level company is growing

Cons

stuck in the dark ages in terms of technology and the amount of paperwork involved in everything computers are so slow that productivity is limited to 50% of what it could be reporting is somewhat unreliable as it is all done by hand - no automation
