Good Benefits. Bad Culture

Portfolio manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

6% 401K match and bank holidays

Cons

Training from binders. NO career advancement, many layers of mid management, toxic old-school work culture. You are an employee number. Morale is low, very easy to lose motivation. We were reminded every other week that we were lucky we were given the opportunity to work hybrid. Pizza party every couple of years.

I truly enjoy this job!

Business Outlook

Pros

I enjoy how this job is structured. We receive monthly portfolios and can anticipate our workload in advance. The team is supportive and helpful for any questions that you may have. The environment is relaxed, there is never a time where it feels stressful or you feel micromanaged. I truly enjoy what I do and I feel a sense of belonging. It feels like the management is supportive and will help you move up in the company to advance your career. We have meetings each month to understand some of the operations of the other departments in Arbor. Work life balance is fantastic! Absolutely love the hybrid work schedule, it breaks up the week and it's nice having a balance of both.

Cons

The only con that I have is the semi-monthly pay. That is the only thing that I wish could be changed.
