Pros
Can often find workplaces in suburbs closer to home.
Cons
Inconsistencies throughout branches, toxic branch environment, bullies are let run rampant, no support from internal departments, processes are double handled, mothers returning to the workforce are bullied and squeezed out, no recognition for service, very few part time opportunities, will not listen to feedback of those working in customer facing roles, open and honest conversation and those who actively challenge the status quo are punished, "Yes men" are rewarded, those who do little work fly under the radar and those who carry the weight of the workload are taken for granted, the group are going backwards in terms of work life balance and diversity/inclusiveness, I could go on.
