First Republic reviews

I will admit, when I first started at FRB I was so excited because I had always wanted to work here, that it casted a huge shade over all that was wrong with the workplace. I was told we were in transition and working towards the better so the environment would be less toxic. 3 years later, guess what? I still get that exact same message. Before I started here, even one of my trusted recruiters told me to reconsider. There is a high turnover rate, which is also a bad sign. There are rutheless management practices. I've seen people get fired for consistantly meeting all expectations. More than anything, is the quote that I and a few of my colleagues received from our VP in a skip level meeting, "I have no intention of doing any internal promotions. If we have hire level positions open, we'll just hire experienced staff to come in. If you want a hire position, you'll move on to another company. That's just corporate culture."

Easy work.....few solid deadlines incompetent management flat hierarchy but massive preference from upper management to workers that they "like" performance not based on merit but personal preference
