Pros

Customer service from the staff is exceptional. Two weeks of vacation until 5 years and then an additional day up to 3 weeks. The core values were wonderful.

Cons

No promotions from within above FSR level. Unfair treatment of staff with obvious favoritism. Market Leaders have too much control over the individual branch employees. The bank is now leaning towards a sales oriented platform instead of a service one.
