Pros

Friendly and positive atmosphere. Great ininitial training program that was followed by close communication with my supervisor even when I was located at different branches.

Pros

They don't micromanage your hours so you can come in at 8:30; Some groups allow people to work from home at manager's choice The non management workers get along well with each other They did not receive tarp money, which means the prior exec team planned well

Cons

Executives are not in touch with workers; Seem to focus on capital gain without planning ahead and thinking of the pressure it puts on workers; A lot of poeple are overworked and managers seem stressed out; People resentful of process; Mood overall is gloomy No career paths; impossible to figure out how you progress
