Pros

Good company and trying to build a great work culture. I feel try is there but doesn’t get executed correctly. Best part about my job is my branch team.

Cons

Back office and management seem very out of touch what it’s like working in branches or with public during the pandemic while most work from home.Policy and procedures are a moving target and feel every mess up is a gotcha moment. Team is very over worked and expected to execute everything 100% while wearing multiple titles. Management continues to push more task or expectations on team and if not positive and uplifting about it you aren’t a team player. Most days I’m #gladtobehear but this last year has been very pressing to breaking points. I love my job and working but most days feel very defeated.
