Pros

They pay you fairly well and give you good benefits. My health insurance is awesome and the employer matching for 401k is very generous.

Cons

No work life balance. Management doesn't care if you are there till 2:00, and will only have complaints for you when things go wrong.

Thanks for your comments. That is very sad to hear as we have a strong focus on dynamic working and creating work life balance for our colleagues, however it does rely on the support of line managers. We have a "Dynamic Working" month planned for October and hopefully this will help change the culture n your office.

Pros

No pros for this branch at all

Cons

Well where can i start. If there was a minus rating i would give that. What an awful branch to work for. My upmost stressful and intimidating role at Walsall Park Street. Segregation of staff members- where certain colours were favoured. Higher staff thinking they could leave earlier than most staff working. Leaving staff to remain until late evenings , ie. 7-8pm. Poor support or even no support at all, would sit at the back and gossip about love lives, on facebook. Were spoken about behind your backs and given stupid face reactions. No career progression. I would never ever recommend this job to anyone. Awful awful branch!!
