Anyone work / worked in a bank branch?

Tellers are normally in about 35-40, customer service (sales) 45-50 generally. Depending on the financial institution there may be a lot of pressure to get sales/referrals to other business units. Depending on the location the targets may be easy to achieve or very very difficult. Unfortunately management don't tend to take location into huge consideration when setting targets, or they think that because of the location they should be getting big $ customers but that's not always the case. Banking can be a very good industry to work in (I've been in banking for 7 years, starting in branch network and was there for 3 years) but some people don't like the sales pressure. Just one thing to keep in mind

Thanks heaps for that My partner fully understands sales pressure, he is a sales territory manager for a well known cigarette manufacturer which I hate to bits. There is massive pressure, and especially with all the regulations, laws and changes, plain packaging etc, its as difficult as buggery. So I think anything will be a break for him - and me. Its my birthday next week, and he's away for it yet again, and will be next year too if the dates fall the same again, not to mention all the other regular events away. So tired of him working long hours, working away etc.
