Pros

The bank has changed so much in the past few years, and all for the better. Growth and opportunity are ripe for the taking if you work hard and are not afraid of change and hard work.

Cons

As for cons, I would say that people who cannot handle change and cannot work in cross function teams do not belong in this company.

Horrible initial welcome into company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Small regional co. Only upside to working at ABC. You would think..many other small regional banks out there I would rather work for. If all you seek is a pay-check, then by all means go for it.

Cons

Aside from the initial bad on-boarding into co. Every initial hire-up seem to not have a clue what they were talking about. They all lacked leadership skills. After the point-less week of so-called training, I started at my branch; where the lack of structure continued. I was picking up all the slack from previous employee, all surrounding branches; completely understaffed.
