Standard bene package....Health, dental, vision, 401K (1% match), STD and LTD, Life, Voluntary Life, ADD, HSA, etc....the basics! Never worked at a bank where semi annual bonuses were the norm. PTO seems to be the new choice for combining sick, vacation and personal time off.

Never never never count on a bonus. Years ago, the company I worked for gave a bonus that was the equivalent of more than a paycheck to every employee for over 10 years in a row. The 11th year, we were all stunned when we were handed a box of chocolates instead. None of us expected that, let me tell you! Christmas gifts for all my friends and family went on the credit card that year, and I learned a valuable lesson... never expect anything that's not in writing. The bank I work for now has never given bonuses. We have vacation (sliding scale based on years of service), sick time (6 days per year), and personal time (2 days per year), short and long term disability, life insurance equivalent to one year's salary, accidental death & dismemberment insurance, and health insurance (no vision, no dental): the bank pays a portion and we pay a very high dollar amount out of every paycheck for the premiums. We have 401(k) but the bank doesn't match anything. We have a profit sharing program, but the bank has not contributed anything during the past two years. No health savings account.

My current bank: After 90 days: Medical, dental, vision, STD, LTD, FMLA and Life paid 65% by the bank. 401(k) available after 1 year of service, matched up to 3% - after 5 years, you're fully vested. 6 day-to-day absences available for sick time. 2 weeks vacation after 1 year of service. You may "borrow" up to 1 week of vacation during your 1st year of employement, after 6 months. If you do so, in your 2nd year (when you would have received 2 weeks, you'll only get the 1) and you cannot borrow anymore until your 3rd year. No Christmas or annual bonus. The Christmas party you get a gift "if" your name is called or get a consolation prize of a pretty cheap logo blanket.
My previous bank: All benefits after 30 days of service, 401(k) matched up to 6%, 2 weeks paid time off plus 6 sick days. $250 Christmas bonus regardless if you've been there 10 years or 10 minutes. Plus a plush blanket.
