Pros

There are still some great people here who truly care about their work, and the benefits are fairly competitive.

Cons

Leadership keeps changing direction, leaving teams confused and overworked. Support and resources have declined, and it’s probably the most toxic environment I’ve ever worked in. The culture has gone downhill in recent years, and there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors—don’t fall for it. Leadership seems more focused on trying to look like the next big bank and competing with the largest players than staying true to their roots and what once made the company special.
