Stable company with good benifits
Financial Analysis and Reporting Manager (Current Employee), Los Angeles, CA –
9 to 10 hour day work. New systems and different culture than the companies which I have worked in the past. Management and culture is changing. Hardest part of the job is not willing to change or adopt new methods of doing business. Flexible hours and allow to work from home.

A very friendly and laid back enviorment
ADMIN ASSISTANT (Former Employee), Los Angeles, CA –
Union Bank was filled with fun helpful and honest people. Eveyday was a good day and i couldn't wait to get to work. I learned how the company works and I also learned how to be a good admin assistant. My co-workers were very nice and helpful went I needed help. The hardest part about the job was waking up every morning to go, but what I enjoyed most – more...  was the friendly enviorment. – less

An Okay Place to Work if Sales Driven
Senior Teller (Former Employee), Montebello, CA –
Pros: ability to make great money if sales driven, great healthcare/retirement package
Cons: very stressful, no respect for employee thoughts/feelings
I'm sure it depends on who you work under, but in all my years there it seemed that Union Bank didn't respect the employee too much and just wanted you to push accounts/services on people while making the actual transactions/needs of the customers not as important. I understand the bank needs to make money, but every day was a constant battle with management – more...  treating us like children trying to get us to sell more. They felt that repeating the same thing over and over again and getting on our case would increase numbers. In my opinion it lowered morale and made the employees feel they were being told they were worthless. It was a very stressful place to work. I also had a boss who lied on my review several times. Other than that the pay was comparable, and I got the time off I needed if I gave enough of an advance notice. – less

Location and environment
Teller (Former Employee), Highland Park, CA –
Pros: long lunch breaks, pay
Cons: terrible management, location, hours
The company itself is not bad it was just the location I was working at. Terrible management and the customers dealt with were no better. Overall, one of my worst experience. The management said there would be opportunity to advance and move up but I never saw any even though working there for two years. I only enjoyed at first but only at first since – more...  I soon came to realize that this job was no better than my previous one except the pay. I was working at Burger King before this one and I dealt with similar problems. – less

Challenging work enviroment. As a team must keep eachother motivated and share ideas to succeed.
Sr. Relationship Banker, Officer (Current Employee), San Jose, CA –
Pros: health benefits, 401k, vacation.
Cons: internal systems are outdated, not enough offices for chance to excel career, do not have competitve products within our market.
A typical day at work starts with me having a morning huddle with my sales team. We go over current promotions and goals which need to be met within the week/month. My current job has taught me exceptional time management and organizational skills. I also enjoy meeting new people which is a must in my industry. Being a leader in my office, I always – more...  lead by example and am there to answer any questions my colleagues may have and help find solutions to solve problems. When I don't have any appointments at the office I visit business prospects and also visit current clients in my business portfolio to retain and grow their relationship with my company throughout my San Jose territory. The hardest part of my job is not having competitive products to stay on top of the fast changing economy and also not being able to excel in my career as we do not have many offices in Northern California. The most enjoyable part of my job is working with upper management on certain market areas to generate more business. – less
