Pros

WEB. Balance Sheet.

Cons

Text book Peter Principle to Dunning-Kruger effect in full display. This was the best franchise in the business 10 years ago. From rush to correct coarse to overcorrection. Senior management with lifetime appointments, ineffectual with impunity. Feckless Branch managers that are never physically in the office. Second rate underwriting staff. The top tier are long gone.
