Pros

Decent retirement and health benefits.

Cons

Company morale is currently very low due to senior management's decision to layoff a large amount of employees and direct the bank's focus primarily on the 'bottom line'. Employees have and will continue to leave, as workloads in various departments become unmanageable and employees continue to be overworked. Also, if employees get raises they are minimal and far below the market rate; expect 1-2% if you're lucky.

Work hard or not, get paid the same

Pros

I work some very good people, smart people who can get the job done. The work is interesting.

Cons

But it also doesn't pay very well for the amount of work you do. Some departments seem to get away with doing nothing while others can hardly take a break. Some coworkers don't pull their weight, but everyone seems to get the same raise, if anyone does, no matter how good or bad their review is. That doesn't seem fair.

Pros

Salaries are low but treat employees well. Good benefits.

Cons

Family owned which makes it quirky at times.
