Pros

There are many talented and genuinely good people who care about doing the right thing for clients and colleagues. Some teams are collaborative, and a few leaders truly want to see the organization move forward.

Cons

The bank is stuck in the past with limited forward-thinking leadership. Diversity and inclusion are often discussed but not reflected in executive or senior management ranks. It's performative. Look across the executives and senior management and you will notice a pattern. Great ideas often go unheard, and decisions are made without strong data analysis to support them. Pay is below market, and benefits are average compared to peers. Some people in leadership are not strategic thinkers. They get too many passes with no accountability taken. There is a lack of modern understanding of how businesses operates. Technology and processes are outdated. Too many people that need to be retired already hindering the growth of the bank. Several managers can't lead. Everyone can't be in management.

Pros

Working with a group of caring professionals in a positive environment that provides support and encouragement at all levels. They offer a wide array of benefits that are really affordable and the open approach by the management staff is very refreshing.

Cons

I feel the onboarding process is a little 'clunky' and could be engineered to be more clear and easier to navigate.

Pros

Health insurance and benefits are good

Cons

Place is run like a military base, very strict. Carpeted walls constantly gave me allergy issues.
