Job Satisfaction Depends Primarily on Managemet
Pros: When working under a supportive manager who backed me, gave me some autonomy, listened to my concerns, and found opportunities to sing my praises, this company was awesome. I found myself promoting from a banker to an SBS in a few months, from an SBS to a new-build in a year, and into the BMT program a year after that. Each of those advancement opportunities had been catalyzed my respective manager.
Cons: When working under an unsupportive manager, this company was unbearable. I had to relocate and fell under a new manager's umbrella. The company is so big that, without a manager who is interested in proactively marketing you for advancement opportunities, you can easily be passed up for positions that you're qualified for.
