Pros

Fellow employees try to be friendly and helpful in a very bureaucratic system. Depending on location, there is some room for growth.

Cons

Employee benefits have deteriorated since the merger. They pretty much selected the employer lower cost benefits between the two banks. Technology is old and outdated. Morale is low.

Pros

I am struggling to find good things to say here. Free ice and water? Pay and benefits are mediocre at best, but not competitive across industries, only locally. They gulp down vendor kool-aid and stick to a timeline no matter what-to a fault.

Cons

The good old boy/girl network is full force here. Protect your back here, or start your own knife collection, your choice. If you are a member of the network, you can underperform and prove your lack of knowledge without repercussion. Skill and ability have no bearing. They will find ways to PIP you out so they can find underlings that properly kiss up in their high school popularity contest way.

not such a great place to work any more

Pros

The people I was happy to be paid to leave Oh, yes --- the people

Cons

Too much change, not enough communication. Constant layoffs. No one knew when the next round was coming. Lots of knowledge/tenure out the door. Poorly trained management --- Bank can't make up it's mind what it wants to be. Completely wiping out the departments. Brought in management that has NO CLUE how to treat people with respect. They regressed in their approach. Big brother mentality - you are being watched with a lot of micromanaging involved. People are not allowed to work remote any longer.... no flexibility. As the another person stated, each year they take away more and more so-called benefits from the employees and offer nothing in return. Pay increases and promotions are not based on work performance but rather on popularity. Sadly they are ruining what used to be a great place to work.
