Pros

They pay interns, good culture for the larger branches, good work life balance, great positions to move around or up depending on the location. Good matching 401k and stocks. Very advanced with benefits when thinking about various generations. Do not stay more than 3 or 4 years. :)

Cons

You can be promoted if you are liked. I would compare the job environment as to being in middle school with a bully or in college and being hazed in order to be accepted. That appears to be like any corporation so I do not fault Ally for this. Not much diversity when it comes to upper management but like I said before that would be most corporations. Interns have a presentation at the end of their stay and Ally more likely taking their ideas and implementing it when they leave.

Pros

You get a bi-weekly paycheck.

Cons

The culture has tanked under new leadership over the last couple of years. It’s cutthroat, senior management keeps swapping out experienced leaders for their own people, same values, same bottom line only mindset. No one actually knows what they’re doing because everyone’s expected to do everything and own the fallout when it doesn’t work. Decisions get micromanaged or made behind closed doors about your own team, with no input. There’s constant pressure to cut expenses, and the target seems to double every month, at this rate it feels like the end is inevitable. Layoffs happen a few times a year now, two years running, and leadership straight up tells you it’s the new norm, so get used to it. Everyone knows it, everyone talks about it, and everyone’s living in fear. On top of that, you’re expected to work 12 hour days and answer emails on weekends, then get told you’re still not doing enough. It’s demoralizing. This is an awful place to work, and with the job market this bad, people can’t leave even though everyone’s looking. Feels like a sinking ship, and they deserve it for how they treat people.
