Network Security Specialist (Former Employee), Jersey City, NJ – May 23, 2012
I am grateful to have had this position for close to four years. I think it was a opportunity but I was working as a contractor and in the end I was never given a fair opportunity to succeed. Most of my coworkers was rude and hard to get along and the environment was highly nepotistic.

Retail atmosphere is miserable. The only good thing about working here was the benefits other then that it is a high stress not worth the money environment.
Trust Officer (Current Employee), Dallas, TX – May 21, 2012
Pros: decent benefits.
Cons: under staffed, no cost of living adjustments, technology issues, sending jobs to india
I manage book of special needs and court appointed trust. The clients require a lot of hand holding and attention, and quiet frankly, the number of accounts we is too many. My day consist of reviewing and approved (or disapproving) request from my clients. I work on compliance issues to makes our trust have all require paperwork. I also interact almost – more... daily with business partner within the bank and external clients. – less
A typical day at work begins with checking emails to ensure that all accounts are set-up, coded and the links are in place to protect the company from financial, operational and reputation risk.
The most enjoyable part of my job is being a teamplayer and going above and beyond to ensure that the job is done in a timely manner.
Investment Bank Associate (Former Employee), New York, NY – May 21, 2012
Pros: risk management, training, reputation, mobility and colleagues
Cons: salary
JPM was a fantastic place to work! The training provided to the employees was top notch. It was so good that if JPM is on your resume, getting hired is guaranteed! I learned how big the world really is and developed a professional demeanor and style. My co-workers ranged from young and eager to seasoned and patient and came from every walk of life. – more... The hardest part about the job is seeing how small the paycheck is! Mr. Dimon is a great leader, but he is very cheap! But at least he's cheap with himself and the top execs too! The most enjoyable part of the job was telling people you worked there...appreciation and respect were immediate! – less
Home Lending Collector (Current Employee), Irving, TX – May 21, 2012
Pros: decent pay, room for movement within the company/advancement
Chase is a pretty good place to work. I have learned a lot about the mortgage industry. I feel comfortable in my position and have been satisfied with the compensation and daily work experience.
Computer Engineer (Former Employee), Columbus,Ohio – May 21, 2012
Pros: pay was good
Cons: company culture
Management was not always good. Company expected more than practical output from people. Culture was poor. Constant ways to save money cost more in the long run. Employee appreciation was poor. A real downgrade when Bank One was bought out by Chase.
Great place to learn about the equity loan industry.
Loan Originator/Underwriter (Former Employee), Phoenix, AZ – May 21, 2012
On a typical day at work, I would talk to Chase customers and counsel them on our equity loan products. The hardest part of the job is turning down a customer for a loan. The most enjoyable part of the job is approving a customer and helping them achieve their goals.
No work/life balance, Low pay to comparable jobs, Good benefits, Micro-management
Personal Banker (Current Employee), MI – May 20, 2012
Pros: no work/life balance, low pay
Cons: benefits, 401k, fun co-workers
It is not a difficult job, but there is no work/life balance since working hours range from 8am-8:30pm and work lots of weekends. Advancement does not happen in the time-frame they originally give you, expect to wait another 6mo to a year. When you do get a promotion, work load/responsibility increases significantly and base pay goes up a small amount – more... that is hardly worth the added responsibility, especially since it takes away time from making the sales you need to keep a steady paycheck coming. The bragged about "Uncapped Earning Potential!" only works in your favor when there is consistent foot traffic in your branch and they don't keep cutting the compensation plan every year. – less
Vault Teller (Former Employee), Brooklyn, NY – May 20, 2012
Pros: one hour lunches
Cons: standing all day at the teller station
The co-workers are friendly and easy going. The work involved for a vault teller is not back breaking and can be done by anyone willing to learn the ropes. The benefits are better than most company's i have been too. Sometimes it doesn't even feel like work because its that kind of job. The only bad thing is standing 8 hours a day at your computer.
