Pros

Excellent 401k and PTO benefits. Flexible work schedule start times as well as work from home capabilities while working in IT. Decent healthcare although the costs just keep increasing... that's everywhere now perhaps....

Cons

I disagreed with most of the major decisions handed down from leadership. Promotions were hard to come by and raises and bonuses were sporadic and based more on if the company was in a period of expansion or contraction... It seemed to be feast or famine in terms of compensation.... usually famine.

Pros

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Cons

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
