      Pros

      The old Level One Bank folks were awesome. But they’re fleeing like rats off a sinking ship now that the bozos from First Merchants Bank arrived.

      Cons

      First Merchant's systems are so awful. So 1980s. Can't use docusign because it's "too risky." Only join this place if you're ready to return to the days of the fax machine.

      Managers are always willing to jump in and help with tasks or research or to be a go between with difficult requests.

      Cons

      Pay could be better for what the job entails
