Pros

Decent Benefits and some nice team workers

Cons

Constant expense controls, while expecting top and bottom line growth for shareholders (the original owners). Antiquated equipment for all but line producers, feels like stepping back into a 1950s secretarial pool even for professional level positions. Anyone looking for advancement or a more modern work environment leaves the Bank.

Pros

Loyal and friendly employees who want to do the right thing.

Cons

Lack of diversification of ideas and opinions in the company. Technology is significantly behind competitor banks. Compensation is below industry standards. Company does not have incentivized employees so productivity and performance is low compared to other financial services firms.

Pros

Company offers great benefits and strong competitive starting salary. They will give you sufficient time to ramp up your production. The people and management were nice overall.

Cons

The credit box is very limited and the environment is EXTREMELY political. There is not a lot of upward mobility, and no real community involvement.
