Pros

Nice co-workers. The customer service trod (tellers) really provide good service. Decent offices/branches as far as upkeep.

Cons

Where to start? Medical benefits lousy compared to other banks. Technology way outdated. Just look at their mono color ATMs. You still need to use an envelope for deposits. Still using system software that other banks updated 15 years ago. A lot of uncertainty among employees as to future. Bank recently changed to a federal charter from state charter. Depts are being centralized, moved outside of California. Division president has already jumped ship and gone to another bank.does he know something we don't?
