Pros

Strong company values; and excellent team work. The company is invested in leadership development plans. Good exposure to strategic projects. Work life balance is achievable in most positions. New CEO is making tuff but needed changes to make the bank more competitive.

Cons

Changes being made affect positions and departments and many times not considering the performance of the individuals (for Director and below positions). Salaries are not up to market. Most Sr. Managers don't have opportunity to have staff under making promotion to following step quite hard. Leadership development plan is available at your own time. It is very hard to move positions outside your immediate department / division

Pros

Flexibility and advancement opportunities, annual bonus right before Christmas. ESOP bank matches 50% and most banking fees are waived

Cons

Health benefits could be better. A lot of favoritism which makes it hard to advance. Increase core benefits and assist long-term staff with debt consolidation loans for staff that are going thru hardship. Seen too many staff take their personal financial stress to work.
