Key has a lot of good workers in place, good benefits, and adequate working conditions. All Key work locations are convenient to get to.

Too structured and too many procedures in order to get anything done. Management has somewhat lost sight of what it used to be like working in the trenches. Too many meetings for the sake of having a meeting.

Advice to Senior Management

Get rid of the suits and ties and try to be more human in your approach. If you have good services and products, the word will get out. Like all big companies nowadays it is very difficult to talk to people anymore. Need to adopt a more 'home style' look and approach to your customers.

Pros

Facilities, peers, diversity, lines of business

Cons

Poor communication from management. Not much confidence in leadership

Pros

Large company which is good for growth.

Cons

Promotion guidelines are do not take into consideration all factors.

Advice to Senior Management

In order to bid on a posting that is only offered internally external applicants basically have to be successful tellers. If an employee is not good at the teller function then an external applicant has no chance to be successful in other departments.

Pros

4 weeks vacation right off the bat.

Cons

Lower level management tends to take credit for the work tellers put in and are pressured to do.

Advice to Senior Management

How exactly do you sleep at night? LOL

Pros

Overall a good marketing organization

Cons

Same problems you'll find at any really large corporation--right hand doesn't talk to the left. That, and they consolidated the department and laid off a considerable amount of staff.

Pros

Time off is good and able to telecommute.

Cons

Ohio rules and they just don't understand the divesirty in the workplace.

Advice to Senior Management

Listen to the those on the front-lines

Cons

- pay
- don't try to keep their employees

- put in notice, and was the last i heard from my manager, after 7 years of service as a High Performer.

Advice to Senior Management

take care of your employees. Employees are loyal to the people they work for and with, not to organizations.

Pros

Excellent people to work with in the IT sector. Very knowledgeable and willing to help with any questions you might have.

Cons

Management policies can vary from one team to another. Too much outsourcing of development and application support staff in my opinion.

Advice to Senior Management

Help the american economy by retaining jobs here in the states, establish equal policies among each technology group, increase salaries to industry standards.
