      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay and vacation time, health benefits are decent, encourage working at home which saves money on commuting, thats all

      Cons

      Unorganized, reactive, cares more about location of employee than skills & experience of employee, promotions are few and far between, constantly outsourcing to unqualifed India employees, lack of communication across departments, lots of known inconsistencies

      Not the worst place to work but far from one of the best

      Vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Time off program is very generous. Working remotely is encouraged.

      Cons

      The technology issues are comically bad. The amount of red tape is staggering. Star employees are oftentimes abused, getting the work of 2 or 3 FTEs. It's incredibly easy for poor employees to just keep collecting paychecks with no consequences Job security: if your job can be offshored, your job WILL be offshored. Compensation is extremely out of whack, if they get you cheap initially, good luck trying to get fair market value.

      Cons

      Horrible work environment 18 of the 20 branch managers are clueless. Almost every employee is afraid of losing there job for no apparent reason. Managers are afraid to make decisions on simple approvals. Horrible systems so outdated they constantly crash and they are developing new systems that are worse then the old. Horrible customer service can offer our customers simple service (can't issue debit cards at the branch it litterly takes 4 business days. A revolving door with Premier advisors and Premier Banker. Commission suck discretionary bonus always at the low end
