Great place to start a career.

Commercial credit training program which is at the top of the industry. Flat management structure gives you good visibility to top management and opportunity to advance quickly if you perform.

Great group of co-workers
Direct Banking Specialist I (Former Employee), Auburn Hills, MI –
Pros: incentives
Cons: culture changes frequently
A great place to work if you don't mind sitting all day and talking to strangers. The co-workers were great to work with. The hardest part of the job is meeting quotas although the times are tough and not too many people are in the market to invest monies. The most enjoyable part of the job is speaking to a diverse group of people and being able to – more...  assist them to the best of my ability. It was very rewarding after a call that I could have someone satisfied with my recommendations or assistance with a problem they may have had. – less

Lots of great people work at Comerica Bank
Account Analysis / CIS Specialist (Former Employee), San Jose, CA –
Pros: some really fun people to work with.
Cons: not much room for advancement within a department.
I enjoyed the people I worked with at Comerica. Our department was a tight knit group that gradually grew as the bank expanded its operations in California.

My first job since college and I have learned a lot on the coporate world enviroment.
Private Banking - Senior Credit Analyst (Former Employee), Beverly Hills, CA –
Pros: different exposure in loan areas
Cons: long hours
I was a credit analyst that rotated to three different offices including middle market, private banking and commercial real estate. It gave me a broad understanding on underwriting in different kinds of commercial loans. The hardest part of the job is to look at the true story behind the numbers of a complex deal. Each business or credit has its own – more...  nature and different management would result in different outcome. This job is not only number crunching but a challenge to solve a number puzzle problem. I love to work with different kinds of professional during exposing to various area in the market. – less

OK. Little training, increasingly hardcore sales culture
Personal Banker (Current Employee), San Francisco Bay Area –
Pros: banker's hours, good benefits
Cons: cut-throat sales culture
Be ready to sell. There is the minimum of training and then you are thrown into the job and expected to generate sales immediately while competing with your bosses. Branch manager, asst. mgr, and personal banker have similar sales goals and compete for the same customers. Guess who wins. If you are a gung-ho salesperson and experienced in banking, you – more...  may thrive here. Results count for everything. If you are not that thrilled about sales, try a back office position. – less

Customer Service Rep (Former Employee), Livonia, MI –
Pros: good benefits, good environment
Cons: lack of raises
I worked in two to three different departments for this company. I started in the mailroom, then moved up to photo copy retrieval department, than subpoenas. The management was excellent and understanding with a good open-door policy. The hardest part of the job was the lack of raises within department. The most enjoyable was working great co-workers – more...  and being able to come together to form a great team. – less

sales and how to save and manage money.

dcgt – May 21, 2012

The managers do not know what they are doing, and they mistreat employees every day for noe meeting the overly inflated sales goals. Nobody ever meets even 25 % of the sales goals, but the goals keep increasing. Then every week : meetings where everybody has to be positive, no matter the situation of the sales is pathetic. Got to pretend everything is fine, if you want to avoid being picked at every single day. Managers are stealing the employees' sales, then the same managers will scream at you in meeting that you sold nothing that week. Dare to tell them you did, that you will be getting ready to be fired. And they have their own scenario to cover themselves up for any case of unfair discharge. They speak Spanish in meetings - I was the only one not speaking that language. Too bad for me - I was a minority in an English speaking country. When hired I was told I was gonna work every other Saturday - that did not happen that way. I was made to work every Saturday. When I asked why, they got very angry at me and they told me I was just hired and I have no right to discuss anything like that with them yet. Because of the lack of clients and work, people spread nasty rumors about each other. If you work here for a month or so, you will hear rumors and gossip even about the regional sales manager and about other people who work at different branches. A nightmare of a job due to bad quality management.

Do not place you back within company when your displaced/laid off.
Equity Financial Rep.(Customer Service) (Former Employee), Auburn Hills, MI –
Pros: benefits
I enjoyed working for Comerica, until I was laid off after 14 years of service on 8/2010. The only complaint about Comerica is when your laid off/displaced the company will not try to place you back within the company, when positions are avaliable. I've applied for different positions within the company, especially in the departments I would assist – more...  in when help was needed, such as low staffed, or team meetings, and high call volume (etc.). Comerica would send you an email or dont even respond, stating the positions has been filled, and their still accepting applications on there website or other employment sites. – less
