Pros

Flexible work arrangement, nice colleagues. School benefits.

Cons

This company thrives on making sure its employees can’t survive on a livable wage. Their salary employees are expected to work more than 45 hours a week. The culture of the company is only to give the manager and directors better pay. The company will do everything in its power to gain a profit. The culture is proven to be nothing but backstabbing, throw people under the bus, self serving individuals. This company prides itself on finding ways to place blame on individuals and finding ways to make it not their fault. This company refuses to pay fair wages and when you request a review you are told “you are paid fairly” or when you state you are doing the work of a senior role asking what the difference is being told “you do not have a certification, you’re expected to do the job for 2-3 years to prove you can handle the job before getting promoted”

Pros

Many great people are still working there, although their number is decreasing. The work/life balance is reasonable.

Cons

The work culture has become toxic. The executive leadership has worsened with new additions from larger national banks such as US Bank and BMO. The CEO is described as a dishonest or untrustworthy person. Every November, over 130 employees are let go to reduce costs, leading to increased work for the remaining employees. Additionally, the annual bonus for non-sales positions has been eliminated. Senior leadership lacks diversity, with white males holding over 90% of SVP positions.
