Pros

High Leave Accrual; fast-paced environment with remarkably short-handed deadlines if you are into what is referred to as "pipe-dreams" where you are held to unrealistic standards to accomplish deadlines...wait for it... work higher than normal hours to meet the next deadline... wait for it.... the next deadline was also unrealistic given the amount of effort still needed, so you're on the hook there as well. If this is your thing, welcome aboard!

Cons

Deadlines are unrealistic... many times over. When enough of your employees are saying this, you may want to listen. Due to everything listed, this is not a destination workplace.

Pros

the job was close to my home

Cons

The worst training I have ever had at any job ever. Started my job without a clue to what I was doing. Thank God my last job trained me well so I could find a way to get by.

Pros

free fruit on monday. free parking. payed every two weeks. badge to get in the door. yup that's about it

Cons

human resources has no control over the culture of the organization and has allowed conflict of interest in hiring which has completely killed the culture. job announcements are tailored for friends specifically to hire; however i don't understand why they don't look at where the applicant's previous job is. many "directors " are getting big checks with no previous banking experience and riding the wave with no innovation.
