Pros

Very strong team dynamic on my team, and decent starting compensation. I have heard from others on different teams that my team is unusually close! I enjoy going to the office because of my team.

Cons

My first week, I was told by my manager that the Wilmington office had limited career growth opportunities. What that means is that if you get unlucky with your manager (I did) you won't get a raise/promoted, no matter how hard you work. On the tech side -- old tech stacks, slow business processes. There's not much of an incentive to improve the developer experience especially. Biweekly afterhours deployments that take too long and bleed into your weekend. Management says terms like "agile" and "CI/CD" without truly implementing them. What do you expect? It's a bank.

Pros

The team members were generally supportive, and the role offered exposure to probate and estate administration. It can be a starting point for gaining experience in a specialized area of banking.

Cons

Many of the advertised benefits of the role did not align with the day-to-day reality. Opportunities for growth, training, and process improvement were limited, and the workload often felt driven by volume rather than quality. Communication and expectations could be inconsistent, making it difficult to feel supported or set up for long-term success.
