Pros

Great staff & employees. Team atmosphere and environment. You never feel too far removed from upper management. Promote from within. Opportunity for growth is there when positions become available. Company and management values retaining current employees. Great support from upper management. Low turnover in many of the back office roles. Availability for company training a plus. Flexibility with work hours, depending on your role. Decent pay when compared to industry standards.

Cons

Dress code is still too old school, even for back office employees. Buildings and facilities are very outdated, and stale when compared to how companies are moving towards modern look and feel. Benefits are "ok", but definitely can be improved. Sales incentives can have a negative effect other departments in the organization. Incentive driven departments put pressure on non-incentive departments to complete tasks, step outside of procedure, etc. in order for them to get meet their goals.

Great Place to Work

Pros

I came in through the Leadership Trainee program, and immediately felt like an important member of the bank. The training was amazing, and I never felt like I couldn't ask questions. After seven months I was placed into an Operations role as a Project Manager, and after about three years I moved into HR. My team and supervisors are beyond supportive, and I have the flexibility to enjoy a great work-life balance. Compensation is fair and right in line with the market.

Cons

I do wish there were some differences in the benefits, but this is not an easy change and what we do have is a good package.

Great Growing Company

Pros

People were general friendly and great to work with. A small bank feel but was definitely going through growing pains. They are great with advancing employees within the company and employer training was very good. Great employee retention. and always plenty of work if you wanted to work.

Cons

Company is going through growing pains. Depending on the department you were in there could be a lot of politics going on causing the general office to be dissatisfied. As most banks, movement can be very slow depending on your manager.
