For example, introducing a Money Market teaser rate & then dropping the rate, while simultaneously introducing a new teaser rate, but for new customers only- so the people who had that rate want the new rate & we had say only if you bring in money from another financial institution -I felt like a thief, when all I wanted to do was help people with their financial goals!! Terrible bank!!!"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"As with many large financial institutions, the best opportunities for career advancement tend to be in lending. If career advancement is one of your objectives, assess those opportunities carefully before signing on. KeyBank can be an extremely high stress working environment. Staffing is uneven. There were large-scale layoffs during the tech bust. As with any position, be sure you will be working for a good boss. It makes all the difference in your quality of life!"

What don't you like about working at KeyBank?

"In the particular division where I worked, there were limited opportunities for advancement. This would not be the case in all positions but checkout the realistic opportunities for advancement before signing on. I had a boss who was just plain crazy (erratic behavior, derogatory comments, anger management issues). HR told me that if what he was doing was was not illegal, they would not take any steps to intervene. They finally fired him but it was a long, miserable experience for those of us who had to try to work for him."
