Pros

No sales "Goals" but now have "Activity Goals", a "Credit Pipeline", and weekly performance which lists loan volume produced, investments produced, assets booked and customer service gallop poll score. Great pay and benefits. Very good PTO and work life balance unless you have a terrible manager. Given a book of business and ample training and education all paid for. Great technology to help you succeed Chance for really good bonuses

Cons

Management wasn't restructured after the sales scandal so they still have unqualified "leaders" who got there from who they know not what they know. Without a sales target, these managers are growing more incompetent and branch managers generally run away from customers and hide in there office away from any liability. Way too many 1 on 1's pretending they are supporting you but only trying to highlight sales numbers to increase pressure.
