Amalgamated is a terrible place to work. It’s run by a group of good old boys (and a few women but it’s pretty male dominated despite how the CEO likes to talk about women at the top—it's just for show.) Upper management makes decisions without considering how it will impact the ones implementing decisions. They see people as numbers and don’t care about them as people or happy employees. The CEO rewards his favorites well but it’s an opaque system where if you’re not a CEO favorite, which means a direct hire of his, then you won’t be rewarded or advance in your career as much. The CEO is extremely ego driven and doesn’t like hearing unfavorable opinions, so everyone shields him from the truth. For example if a project was a total disaster and went poorly, everyone will pretend it was a success to the CEO.
Believe the other reviews where it says everyone talks badly about each other. The CEO even talks poorly of his own staff to other staff. People will backstab each other easily.
The bank claims to have social values but it’s really just greenwashing. The majority of the employees that have been there a long time don’t really even know/care about the social mission and the bank does little to educate everyone about it.
