Siloed, Secretive, No Credibility
Pros
If you need a job to put on your resume while you actively search for a better job, go work for Texas Capital Bank. You can leave by 4pm and you will be one of the employees who work late. You don’t have to work hard, because it is not valued. You won’t stand out so blend in.
Cons
I have never experienced anything like this before in my career. They hired hundreds of seat fillers, who aren’t qualified for their positions, but instead work for their friends. There is no strategic plan. I have witnessed corruption, been silenced, and told to sit back and let team members fail so it takes the pressure off and have a person to blame. A few Senior Executive Managers tell the CEO what he wants to hear so they can collect high bonuses before they retire, thinking they won’t be there when the lies are uncovered. Very little gets accomplished. The company spent millions on a horrible red advertising campaign and think they are at the same level as Chase or Citi, when community banks operate better than it does. Recruiters will lie and tell you that you will get substantial bonuses which you will not get. Your HR rep most likely hasn’t hit the six month mark and do not act as your advocate. Most employees have been at TCB for less than a year. Their talent management program is nonexistent. The company you work for should be a place that encourages teamwork, new ideas, and support their employees. Instead I hear managers saying they “hate” other managers and set them up for failure. If you are in Sales, your goals will be unattainable. Brand recognition will not get you meetings with prospects. Barely anyone has heard of this bank. Prospects wont take your calls and most have relationships with bigger banks that are trusted and have a real product portfolio. Most people, including myself, are planning to leave within the next six months.
