Pros

The company is growing... and fast! Fair base pay and a good bonus structure that rewards growth. Great benefits including 6% 401k match and cheap health/dental insurance. Plenty of room for advancement if you play your cards right (and are liked). Beautiful corporate office at Thanksgiving Tower in downtown Dallas.

Cons

Fraternity C Suite seems extremely distant and uninterested in the people who make up the day to day operations of the company. Politics play a larger role in getting promoted than performance does. (More than at a typical corporate job). The company focus seems to change weekly since they like to launch things before they have actually worked out all the details. (Launch it now fix it later mentality.) No increase in base pay for merit and tenure. (You will only get a higher base if you are promoted.) The culture has changed drastically since the company went public and is no longer as enjoyable as it once was. $100 a month for parking in downtown Dallas.

Pros

If you are looking for a challenge this is the place to be.

Cons

New initiatives and partner programs kick-off, developed before contracts are signed. Everyone kicks butt to meet crazy timelines only for the project to be shelved.

Pay, health benefits, over time available. Co workers are awesome.

ADvanced Teller system is ridiculous. Customers are leaving right and left.
