A very mixed bag

Pros

global company, compensation is good. There are opportunities for advancement, although sometimes these opportunities turn out to be dead-end or placeholder positions that get eliminated at the annual 'cull'.

Cons

a lot of mediocre managers and department heads, loyalty is valued above competence, bureaucratic to the extreme, significant favoritism at executive level towards those with Hispanic surnames, adherence to 'global model' while ignoring US realities. The low-interest rate environment is really hurting this company…make sure you get a good severance package before signing onboard!

Pros

Base salary is higher than other banks. You can call yourself a smaller regional bank, not one of the big banks.

Cons

you have to do multiple jobs and get paid for one. technology is from the 80'sand not getting better any time soon.

Pros

You get to work from home on a weekly basis.

Cons

The culture at this company you think is great starting off. Then the true colors show. There is allot of favoritism. HR doesn't have your back niether does upper management. They over work you, under pay, and treat you badly. There is no true team work in my department. They are lazy and kiss alot of butt. If you speak your mind, make any suggestions on how things can be improved they do not take it into consideration. The answer is "this is the way we've always done it" they do not communicate AT ALL.
