Pretty challenged, the UA program gets you cross-trained in teller work/loan(unsecured and secured) apps/new deposit accounts/wires/notary/small business and some more random stuff. I was fast-tracked a bit but I am trained for everything except the business stuff (generally store managers and lead UA's only) in about a year and a half. Aside from all the training and different hats the company has high standards (we answer the phone company-wide as "thank you for calling the world's greatest bank, this is _____ how can I help you"). I would say the challenge is easily worth it, benefits are good and the company culture is great, I also have pretty high expectations for the future for the company. Also just as a career advancement move, you can play 2 years in a UA role at Umpqua into a nice move into another bank where had you started at teller there it would have taken you 3-5 years to get to the same place training wise.
