Monday through Friday.
Bank Teller Full Time (Former Employee), Utica, NY – May 9, 2013
Pros: positive attitude, making a difference.
Cons: unable to help customer.
Everyday work schedule included balancing, preparing everyone for a day ahead. Make sure everyone has enough money to go though the day, enough coin. every morning join the team huddle learn something new or just share quote of the day. At that time learn what our managers have on their schedules, are they going to be in the office or leaving early – more... or something. Co workers are fun bunch, always willing to help one another and always in cheerful mood and smile on their faces.Most enjoyable part of the job is making difference in someones day, going above and beyond for a customer and getting thank you for it. leaving good impression on every costumer so they will remember you and your excellent service. We call it WOW experience. – less

Stable Job
Lease Documentation Specialist (Current Employee), Rochester, NY – May 6, 2013
Pros: job security
Cons: no work/life balance, no schedule flexibility, no support for advancement
M&T is a very good company but as with all large corporations, the feel of the job is still tied to the management of the individual departments, regardless of the overall corporate culture the Bank itself wants to display.

Depending on the management of your department, you could find yourself a mentor, maybe even a career path, or you can find yourself – more... typecast into a role with nowhere to go unless you post out.

Promotions are slow, raises are small but the Bank does try to minimize layoffs and down-sizing. The Bank weathered the economic recession well relative to other companies. – less

like the people I work with.
Teller/Senior Teller (Current Employee), phila, pa – May 2, 2013
Pros: room for advancement.
Cons: my enthusiasm to work in the medical field.
Hardest part of my job would be to keep track of your money in a fast pace and to identify fraud. Typical day I would make deposits cash checks. Making sure I settle at the end of everyday is a challenge.

Great hours,pay,benefits and location.
Teller (Current Employee), Salisbury, MD – April 22, 2013
Pros: location, hours, vacation time
Cons: goals are not easy to reach, work short-handed often
Follow opening procedures; customer service, and balance at the end of the day with little to no errors. I've learned to have more patience per-say. We see and help people of all kinds. Co-workers are pretty good for the most part. The hardest part would be dealing with working short-handed. That can and has been stressful, but we all pulled together – more... in time like that to help one another. Most enjoyable would be of course, looking forward to my vacations!! – less

High demand low reward
worker (Current Employee), ny – April 8, 2013
The company worries about numbers while putting mandatory overtime on you, they punish you severely if you make a mistake and very low rewards if you don't. 1-2% raises if you get one, friendly environment. If you want a thankless job this is perfect for you!

Great people
Teller (Current Employee), Utica, NY – March 31, 2013
Pros: long lunches
Cons: no room for advancement
M&T is a wonderful place to make new friends and to meet new people, i have learned many things about the banking indistry and customer service. I would say the hardest part of the job is the lack of advancement oppertunities that they offer and the lack of help from managemet to move up in the work field. The most enjoyable part of the job is the customers – more... and seeing them each and every day. – less

Bank Employees Don't get paid well
Analyst (Current Employee), Buffalo, NY – March 25, 2013
Pros: m&t sponsored events
Cons: healthcare
Most people think that banks pay well. M&T does not. The pay is very low and the pay increase don't equal the cost of living increase. Advancment happens at a very slow pace.

Overall decent place to work
Banking Officer (Current Employee), Buffalo, NY – March 23, 2013
Pros: co-workers, work from home, stable company
Cons: health care is horrible as of 2013, pay increases/poor or no bonus opportunities
I've progressed throughout my time at the bank, but it has been 100% due to my efforts. Management and HR do not recognize for promotion and advancement or provide career advice so don't expect that. Decent people, good hours, work from home option and a decent system for training. Pay for performance is preached but not practiced. I've always receive – more... "exceeds" on all my reviews but seldom do I see more than 2% or receive a bonus. Men are paid more than the woman - I hate knowing that but that's probably true at any bank. If you look at M&T President's direct reports - there's only 1 woman listed. – less
