Pros

Before the merger with SCBT, First Federal was an excellent place to work. Great benefits, 401K, stock options etc. offered with ample PTO and catastrophic illness time off that accrued if you never called in sick.

Cons

Once the merger occurred, benefits were raided, CAT time reduced and PTO was reduced. Technology went backwards about 30 years to very archaic software programs that could have been written by a 5th grader these days. Rather than using highly advanced technology that was already in place and have SCBT people learn more user friendly and efficient software, they decided to take us decades back. Their training was seriously lacking. They also raided First Federal employees and sent them packing after many years of dedication and service only to be replaced by inexperienced, unprofessional people that hadn't even been in this business for very long.
