Pros

SVB hires great people to work with. I always say, there's no one I'd rather be in the trenches with than the people I work next to at SVB.

Cons

SVB likes the flashy things. Sometimes we stray from the path of delivering on the right thing because to do it well, it takes time and executive leadership seems to be impatient with results. Therefore, we start down a path and then change direction after investing a lot of time and money into something. We need to be better at making a decision and focusing on that project and delivering rather than always thinking about the next best thing.
