"There are extensive opportunities and encouragement to participate in employee development, especially for women. The leader of my division and of the private bank are women. People at all levels are encouraged to take national leadership opportunities. The company's philanthropy is remarkable and sometimes even astounding. People tend to stay here. My team is great."
Employees say:
"This is the only company that I have worked for that actively seeks input from all employees to better improve processes. And they don't just say that they welcome the input, they created a means and method of receiving input/suggestions, as well as routines to evaluate those suggestions and implement them. If you submit a suggestion, you are provided with status updates as to the decision of implementation and if approved, you continue to receive updates about the progress of said implementation. They mean what they say when they say that they trust the team."
Employees say: "There are endless opportunities for a long-term career at Bank of America. People are encouraged to explore all the areas of the bank and find a home where they most enjoy the work.

"This place is truly unique: I can be all of who I am, ambitiously navigate my career with the support from excellent programs, and take care of my life at home with the support of best-in-class benefits. They say you can't do it all, but you can come pretty close here."

"Bank of America offers unheard of and unmatched benefits to its employees. Mom's and Dads are reimbursed for Day Care expenses monthly and in the event of a new child, parents (regardless of gender) get 16 weeks of fully paid time off.

"This company understands that to succeed, it has to prioritize employee health, work satisfaction, and work-life balance. We have amazing benefits beyond the standard health care plans. As a working mother of two and someone with a chronic disease, I feel like Bank of America has allowed me to focus on my family and health while encouraging me to advance in my career aspirations. Not once have I had to choose between my family and my career. I am so grateful for the opportunities and support I have received from my managers, executive leaders, and the organization as a whole."
Employees say:
"Diversity and inclusion are a key strength. You can see it in the faces, but you can feel it in the spirit of everything we do. It is what makes us stronger and a leader in the industry."
