Pros

Time Off, Benefits, Hard working coworkers

Cons

Complete 180 after merger. Micro managing execs making bad decision after bad decision. Q4 earnings has them scrambling. Upward mobility is not encouraged. I have not seen a single internal promotion in the 3 years I have been with the bank. Lots of talented people have left in the last year.

Pros

Healthcare is decent, 401k investment options good.

Cons

Return to office after we killed it thru COVID and proved we could do it. Employee survey was a joke, they all act like employees love all the changes and I didn't know a single person who did. Talented people are jumping ship and those remaining are so confused. Mid managers don't even know the current direction the bank is going in. Treading water with no insight into the future is no way to work. Wait and see with no plan. Oh and the layoffs since many departments aren't busy at all.
