Pros

The branch manager I worked with was wonderful, as were many others in the surrounding area. They really do have some great, great people and mentors there.

Cons

Some of the upper managers/leadership (starting at the Director level) are pretty awful. They're too far removed from the branch operations to make informed decisions, but do anyway with limited input from the branches. When I was there, I didn't feel the "scorecard" was a fair way to evaluate performance. It's a piece, but very little consideration could be given to employees who focused on the relationship building and trust versus making the sale...and isn't that what is supposed to make us "different" from some of our competitors. There is a HUGE disconnect between the Madison market and the campus branches & Milwaukee market.
