Pros

The physical atmosphere of where you work (if you're in the Mt. Laurel HQ) is amazing. It's a very stimulating place to work. Also, when you say you work for "Commerce Bank," everyone knows where you work. They USED to place a high value on employee development (see cons).

Cons

Commerce was best when it was Commerce. When the company was bought by the Canadians, they SWORE they wouldn't change a thing. I saw the writing on the wall when they started to try to change the brand that Vernon Hill put 30 years into building. Now, "TD Bank" is just another green financial institution that doesn't stand out. I saw it internally before Customers saw it externally. The Training Department was starting to shift from a powerhouse leading the "WOW!" to just a deparment used to push people through.
