Pros

Solid company to work for and work with. Everyone is encouraged to have a voice and contribute to our overall mission, which is to diligently serve our clients. I, personally, appreciate how management takes the time to collaborate with everyone as we discuss and determine best practices that are tied with our mission.

Cons

Every company has cons and areas for refinement, but overall, I'm very satisfied with my three years working for Academy Bank. I know many people that I've worked with here, while good people, didn't have much of a work ethic, so they've moved on and haven't provided accurate opinions. Just my two cents, take it or leave it.

Pros

I like the management style. Well defined goals but gives you the freedom to meet the goals in the best way you see fit. Atmosphere is fun but business like as it should be. Different challenges and tasks keep me learning and developing. I also like that it's a family business and each one is heavily involved and easy to interact with. They recognize when you've done a good job and typically are rewarded for it. Most benefits and pay are good.

Cons

A few benefits could be enhanced to compete with other local banks of similar size.

Pros

Academy Bank is a fantastic place to work. I have been able to advance to more senior level positions throughout my time here, and management really takes an interest in promoting, fostering and mentoring ambitious employees that are interested in moving up the corporate ladder. In general, the company shows great respect for their employees and customers. In addition, the bank has been investing in new technology to enhance the customer experience, with integrated teller machines at new branches which reduces or eliminates the wait in teller lines. Several branches now have advanced ATMs as well.

Cons

Meetings can run a little long in an effort to gain the input and buy in from all affected employees.
