Not Best Place to Work For, Best People to Work With

Pros

I worked at Leader Bank for more than 1 year. In 1 years time i would say that the only thing that kept me here was the wonderful people that i worked with. Each and everyone of them was more than eager to help, because there is NO training program. You get taught nothing, and thrown in. Sink or float, your choice. Your hardest is never enough, and your best performance is never rewarded. You have to be on point 99.99% of the time. No one ever rewards you for exceeding expectations, but make one mistake and all fingers point to you.

Cons

One of the reasons I would not recommend working here is the fact that there is 0 employee appreciation. Upper level management do not take the time to get know their employees. Decisions making is all based on favoritism and not based on hard-work and intelligence. I saw some of the brightest most driven employees, not being utilized never the less rewarded for their hard work. This bank has highly skilled and hard working individuals who take the experience and run. Pay is mediocre at best. Management has no idea how to allocate resources and utilize talent. Such a waste, as this company can be so much better than it. I came in with hopes of working for one of the Best Places to work for. Expect to wear numerous hats and shuffled around like a chess piece, you never know what role you'll be in next!

Good business but lacks some governance

Pros

Nice small bank with warm people.

Cons

Mini India and almost all are related to somebody or the other—probably all H1s just below the threshold that would warrant a review. Management donates a lot to HBS, all three of owners kids went to Harvard, I bet they didnt have stellar GMAT/GPA or even write their own essays. And they get to be execs. Still a lot of paper is used. I have seen sensitive information (ssn etc) just lying around. If you know somebody in management then you could get better rates than normal public would both on loans and deposits.

Pros

Good People and Good location

Cons

Pay is extremely low. If you are not a loan officer earning bonus, you get paid in pennies. Its clearly one man show. CEO likes to micro manage everything from pay to vacations. Career opportunity only if you are ready to agree with everything the management says.
