Exciting and Challenging Workplace
Teller I (Former Employee), Wisconsin Rapids, WI – May 7, 2013
Pros: monthly customer events
Cons: healthcare
A typical day at work was steady and new challenges daily. I learned something new everyday. My colleagues were very helpful and we all got along great. The hardest part of the job would be the loan processing. The most enjoyable was the daily interaction with our regular customers.

Great Company, great benefits
Personal Banker II (Current Employee), Wisconsin – March 21, 2013
I have worked for the company for 4 yrs and they are great. The hardest part of the job can be dealing with the turn-over rate of tellers and the sales piece of the job.

Great Compensation if you want to give up family life
Assistant Branch Manager (Former Employee), Rockford, IL – February 14, 2013
Pros: great pay
Cons: work on holiday's other banks are closed, sales pressure
I loved working for this bank, however I was expected to work 50-60 hours a week and every weekend. I worked most holidays and barely saw my family. This is why I left. Very under staffed. The only reason most staff stays is because the pay is good. Most are very unhappy.

Serious but fun environent
Bank Teller (Current Employee), Hudson, WI – January 24, 2013
A typical day at work is not hard, you complete transactions for businesses and personal customers. While doing transactions you are to profile the client and recommend new products that could improve the customers financial security. Management demands this part of the job be completed each and everyday which can feel uncomfortable and redundant. You – more... have to be willing to hear the word "no" because everyone tells you no. Minus the downfalls of the job the benefits for being employed are great; even for part time work. – less

This company can be a great place to work for. The downfal is that they have a very high turn-over rate.
Admin Asst/Sales Support and Personal Banker (Former Employee), Rhinelander and Minocqua, WI – January 7, 2013
Pros: good incentives, benefits, vacation, and training.
Cons: short staffed and they have a high turn-over rate.
This company can be a great place to work. They incourage and provide training, great relationships are formed with co-workers and customers, and it is a family atmosphere in many branches. There are many different positions available, depending on the location. The worst at Associated Bank is the high turn-over rate. This is both due to employees deciding – more... to leave and also because of the company chosing to terminate employment. This creates situations of working short staffed a lot of the time. With the high termination rate, this creates an employee environment of "will I be the next person that will be walked out". – less

Nice small bank feel and flexible hours
Teller (Former Employee), Glen Carbon, IL – November 14, 2012
Pros: very close group to work with in the office.
Cons: have to work every saturday morning.
A typical day at work was short and fun. I learned a lot about the bank and how things work. I learned the entry ideas about banks. Management was helpful and understanding about things. The hardest part of my job was making sure everything was done at the end of the day. The most enjoyable part of the job was getting close with co- workers.

Too much management turn over
Vice President (Former Employee), Wisconsin – October 16, 2012
Pros: the green bay culture is friendly.
Cons: the milwaukee culture is desperately petty.
Ideas are driven downward vs. upward from the field. Too much management turn over makes it difficult to advance, learn new skills, or create a collaborative atmosphere. Senior management tends to be dictorial and exclusive, playing favorites.

Hostile work environment
Senior Teller (Former Employee), Lindenhurst, IL – October 15, 2012
It is hard for me to review this company as a whole. I had a very poor experience with management at my particular branch. The branch was staffed with all the managers friends except for me. My manager did not act in a professional manner when at work and had no control over the staff in the building. There was a lot of gossip between branches.

Not Family Friendly, Customer is not number one, sales are.
Personal Banker (Current Employee), Wisconsin – September 3, 2012
Pros: free health assesment, earing up to $75.00 towards a gym membership
Cons: horrible work hours, not family friendly, high sales goals, customer is not number one
I did not receive adequate training or set expectations when I started this job, however they have revamped their training process since then. I enjoy working with the customers many whom have been with the bank for a long time. The hardest part is hitting the very high sales goals, and not seeing my family because I work fifty five hours plus sometimes – more... not taking a lunch or staying past 7 PM. Expect to have call nights, work weekends and come in early. They are always short staffed so that should say something for the company. They are also the only bank open on Veterans Day. – less

Midsize midwest bank attempting to compete with large national banks.
Personal Banker (Current Employee), Illinois – August 26, 2012
Lack of respect for employees work/personal time balance.
Threatens punishments when sales goals are not met.
Strong sales focus often supersedes customer service.
Mission statement does not match the day-to-day goals and management focus.

great company to work for
Senior Teller (Former Employee), Ashland, WI – July 17, 2012
Having worked there for over ten years, I found the company to be a sound business, and a great company to work for. The benefits and continuing education provided are some of the best I have seen. I completely enjoyed going to work each day.
