Pros

-no lay offs, stable job -work/life balance is exceptional -family like atmosphere. Everybody is willing to help if asked or if not somebody will help -Management is approachable

Cons

-very low pay compared to target sales goal of $13mm-$13.5 million/year and salary of $36- $43k -stress to meet your goals on a daily basis. -award you get as best of the best employee is roughly $200 for the year and that is it. Doing best for the year additional salary is $4k-$5k -lots of fraud customers walking in and if something happens you get blamed big time. -Ability to multi task with a very limited period of time. Handling all new accounts, doing credit application for line of credit, visa and mortgage and approving this with your own limits plus you also do all the investment side. You do all investigations and credit check. Basically this is more than 5 jobs in one. -If you are a new trainee, not much support from in house branch unless you go to a branch that is good in training.

Pros

Low stress, nine to five, compensation is better than in most places, get to work on whatever technology we want.

Cons

Skillset not transferable to other jobs: one gets too tied up in the infrastructure, takes too long to setup any software tools, etc.
