Pros

-SR Leadership eventually listens -Managers have autonomy to make decisions in their branch -If the branch performs your bonus can be around $4k/qtr -The benefits are very affordable -The COVID response was amazing for employees -The work/life balance is good

Cons

-SR Leadership only listens after the entire bank sees massive amounts of turnover of good quality talent -They say it is not a sales based organization but make no mistake you will be calling lots of people and turning every single interaction into sales that they call "needs based" and the sales pressure is enough that this is not the job for most people -There are too many egos in Birmingham that all think they know the right directions to lead the bank as far as sales go and you see lots of counterintuitive direction come from different avenues. -Too many buzz words used to where every conversation you have with anyone above the BM level feels fake and/or disingenuous

Pros

Dedicated coworkers and supportive team members in my department. Great team and manager to work with and to be on. It’s been a good experience in banking operations and compliance.

Cons

Return to work expectations aren’t the same for everyone. Hard to understand where work-life balance fits in after years of successfully remote work. Now it feels like employee concerns are heard but not always considered and this change to come will impact routines, responsibilities, plus much more that many employees have built over the years.
