Pros

In theory the "story" being sold is ok but the execution is horrible. Focus on customer service is a good move. Alignment to CBA makes pricing more competitive as can leverage off the balance sheet.

Cons

Middle management dismissive of employee concerns. Many middle managers are not capable of doing their jobs. Multiple restructures and redundancies mean remaining staff expected to keep doing more with less despite stretched targets. Bonuses are still largely discretionary so you must brown nose to get anything or to get promoted.

Pros

Great culture, Flexibility, Nice building, Talented people, strong processes and always evolving tech stack.

Cons

Sometime work can be monotonous, if you are stuck in a team for long time. Finding opportunities to move across teams, you have to fend for yourselves, people leaders too busy or aloof to help.

Regional bank so limiting for opportunities outside of the company - not an easy transition
