      Amazing people, below market pay.

      Pros

      The culture and people you work with are unmatched. The bank has the opposite culture of that of big banks. Managers genuinely care about your growth and personal life.

      Cons

      The pay, especially in the Bay Area, is below market. Several employees have left to other financial institutions for higher compensation.

      Pros

      My immediate team was great. Culture was great but declining around the time I left.

      Cons

      Upper management speak of work/life balance but does not practice it and expects it even less. Company appears to diverse but in reality, it is not. A lot of favoritism.
