      Pros

      Fair, high integrity, management listens and supports, opportunity for advancement, immediate branch location staff is wonderful, bonus eligible depending on numbers, incentives for account production.

      Cons

      Initial starting salary was only fair, lower than average but will hard work, production, and loyalty, you are rewarded. Initial training years ago was weak but has improved greatly.

      Pros

      As with anything in life... you get out of it what you put into it. I have given this company 110% everyday and they have taken great care of me. I'm excited to see the many changes our company is making for the betterment of the employees, the clients and our share holders. Our EMC team is dedicated and determined for the continued success of our amazing company. Thank you!

      Cons

      As with any company, there are always areas that we can improve on. Training is the number one concern that need immediate attention and action. We need to do a better job with our new hires on teaching them the culture of our company and how to better serve our clients. We tend to rely on outdated material and tribal knowledge.

      Pros

      Wonderful 401k match and profit share, family culture. New leadership is very promising.

      Cons

      Career path and salary grade could help employees realize their opportunities and the bank and supplement retention efforts.
