Pros

During probation you can apply for paid leave or sick leave

Cons

Immature Management, when you resigned the management will just ignore your existences during your one week notice period, High workload some of the colleagues are comfortable to work with but not all some will show attitude to new hires, very high turnover over rate no awe no bonus no yearly increment only so called profit sharing, expect you to work by pushing most of the accounts to the new hires where those newly promoted will just draw line, management wise not supportive many of the new hires will just quit within a short period of time.

Pros

Great company culture, love the investment they put in for career advancement. Great people to work with, CEO is amazing but he's stepping down this month. Benefits are good. Decentralized organization so your ideas and solutions actually get listened to and implemented. Feel like I'm actually making a difference in the company.

Cons

Pay is lower than the industry average for most departments and they don't keep up with the cost of living, don't do bonuses (unless you're in sales) or pay raises. You have to ask to get one and most times they say no. Very male dominant at the branches and in sales, but many women in corporate leadership. Don't have any DEI initiatives. Not flexible on relocation for internal management roles, have to be at corporate HQ in Winona, MN.
