Cons

1.) Some Team are very toxic with regional bias 2.) We don't get chance to even project our work to defend any bad rating given at the time of appraisals, it's just a one-way war 3.) Very bad HRs in terms of helping the candidate's backgorund verification once he's out of the organization 4.) They'll take away all the arrears

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.
