Cons
Where do I begin? 1. Lack of training required to do your work as expected by management. 3 months of training which mostly involves role play calls and little experience doing the actual work. When I asked if I could shadow someone on the job to learn the process I was told that I should know how to do it and if not, to go back and read the Job Aids (it's like reading a dictionary). 2. Promotions have nothing to do with merit or performance. I was told by interviewers when applying for a promotion that there is a lot to consider when hiring someone, particularly the number of men and women in branch so they will look for who fits in the branch at that time. 3. Be ready for a zero accountability workplace. Tasks will be reassigned and passed through multiple hands before reaching someone who will finally action it. No one is willing to take the responsibility of requests and will hand it off at any given opportunity. 4. If you have a concern, keep it to yourself. The human resources department is only there for show. They will listen to your concern regardless of the validity and take no action to improve your situation. My religion was openly mocked in front of my colleagues. When I raised this concern with the department, after an "extensive investigation" they said it was a "harmless joke" and that was the end of it. In fact, they were asking me what I did to make him say something like that. 5. Very high turnover. The gist of it is that you are expendable.
