Business Outlook

Pros

The biggest disappointment of my career to date

Cons

Benefits are expensive and still cover nothing. Roles are not well defined. Systems incredibly outdated and perform poorly. Employee handbook/ explanation of how to perform tasks is difficult to follow. Employees responsible for errors are not held accountable. If the system allows a flaw to occur, even if you follow the system you are blamed, not the outdated system.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great atmosphere in the Maryland subsidiary office. Under new CEO, actually feel like part of the main office. Wonderful management and work/life balance. Starting PTO and benefits for full time or salary is a plus

Cons

Sometimes there is still a disconnect on how the main office in FL perceives our MD office. We do both large equipment leasing and franchise funding so it is still new to the main bank. End of year can get demanding so PTO can get harder to use at this point.
