The CEO doesn't believe in raises. Raises that are given are always below market standard. Bonuses are likewise. Severe favoritism occurs at the main branch and the trickle down effects are very plain to see. Employees will be let go for no reason at any time, even in higher positions. The company will send quarterly emails about how wonderfully we're doing financially, outline at great length the growth in loan and deposit portfolios, and then give you a bonus that could maybe cover two weeks of groceries. Training programs are nil, standards and expectations are not clearly defined. You could do your job wrong for seven straight months before someone points out that you're doing it wrong, even if it's the way someone told you to do it.
There are NO female loan officers in the state of South carolina at this Bank, and every single loan assistant is a woman. The sexism is disgusting. This bank preaches community service and engagement but that involvement tends to come from employees out of their own pockets and on their own time. As far as community banks go, their bank-sponsored community enrichment programs are lacking, few, and far between
