Pros

401k match exists, health insurance is good.

Cons

Neither location nor facilities are desirable enough to force talent to succumb to working in office 3x per week. Not all floors are renovated, which should have been a higher priority when people were working remotely. Safety in the downtown Buffalo area is a glaring issue, myself and other women in my department have had issues just arriving to work, getting coffee or lunch. Diversity is a flop. Expect the top achievers and speakers at events to be white and male. At my most recent departmental meeting and my coworkers and I all laughed. There were 9 men and 1 woman. This is the case at every departmental meeting, I would not exaggerate this. Meager 401k match at 5%. I am a woman working as an AVP and I earn 40,000.00 per year and a $900 average bonus per year. You can compare the stats on that. They also are not hiring quickly enough to deal with the great resignation and you can expect to pick up the slack. Stop asking for so much feedback if you aren’t interested in actionable responses. Need to improve upon benefits and salaries. Gender pay gap is a massive issue.

Pros

Bank Holidays and the vacation time

Cons

They hire knowing there is not enough work to keep you busy, Lack of pay and what they promised to make up for the pay in bonus and OT does not happen. Lack of experienced management who knows what they are doing. QC department that picks on every small detail vs knowing how to get a loan purchased and move on. MOST OF ALL, there is NO training. You are left out in to figure and fend for yourself the M&T Bank way. Lots of useless weekly meetings and the only ones that stay are the long time employees are have no experience working in a "real" mortgage company to know what is right and wrong.
