Pros

Pay, vacation, executive leadership, specifically the chairman Mr. Wells. Overall financial health and strength of the bank.

Cons

Bank offers tailored solutions only inside their predetermined box. Does not work well with small business or borrowers even as a community bank. If your need is <$1,000,000 costs/fees will be high or you’ll be priced out as there is no real interest in the deal unless you are an A++ borrower.

Pros

Very stable company, they don't get spooked easily by things that are happening in the market. I have a fantastic boss, but that's just my department, so I can't account for others.

Cons

No cons for me, my job is very flexible, I love it.

Banking hours and friendly coworkers. Clients are genuinely good people

Low pay and old systems. Facilities are dated and main office is not as nice as other companies in the finance field. Training center is literally in a strip mall.
