Pros

good location good pay easy hours No supervision

Cons

Worst place I have ever worked. No one cares about doing a good job. Salaried employees clock in like they are hourly workers. Everyone is very unprofessional. Profanity flies in the office. Always willing to point finger at others. The morale is horrible and the leaders have a 'morale boosting' committee that is a joke.

Pros

Actually a good company overall. Michigan based company ran and operated by people who actually live in Michigan. I was promoted twice in two years. The opportunity for growth was present, there were always employees transfering departments. Great cafeteria with staff chefs and cooks, flat screen tv's, barbeque cookouts in the summer. Overtime. Really a lot of nice perks.

Cons

While the opportunity for growth was there....the pay for performance was severely lacking. While I was promoted twice in a short period of time, I was kept at the same pay grade. Most people within the company were unhappy with their job. Upper Management puts unnecessary pressure on its lower management and that just trickles down to the common employees. Smoke breaks given to people to smoke, but if you do not smoke, do not expect a break other than your lunch. If you called in sick, your manager would call you back and ask what was wrong, why you were taking the day off. Very little respect for work/life balance.

Pros

New hires are generally well paid and given opportunities to establish themselves. Support for training and professional development is also generally high. The bank is also frequently investigating or implementing new systems to bolster it's mortgage and lending platforms.

Cons

At times management and it's actions completely disconnect from reality in the IT department. IT makes solving problems long term very difficult. I can't speak for banking. The new management seems to be aligning the banking and lending arms with the needs of small businesses and mortgage consumers well.
