Pros

Pay was nice Benefits were okay

Cons

Management is the worst I’ve ever seen, specifically in lending. If you aren’t a family member of someone important or best friends with a manager you are nothing to them. They promote the wrong people. Management is gossipy and catty. No work life balance. They expect you to be a robot, not a human. If you aren’t willing to sell your soul this isn’t the job for you. If you’ve got friends in high places you can just make your own schedule, leave to go golfing if you want but if you don’t have friends in high places you can barely take a lunch break. Not allowed to have personal conversations with your team during work hours- it’s a cult. Don’t do it.

Pros

Amazing community and family feel. Lots of promotion form within. Growth opportunities. Tuition help.

Cons

They focus hard to make sure people are never laid off, so HR is careful about how many people they hire, which is great, but also not great when your team needs more people but you can't get anymore people. Some people get away with doing the bare minimum yet still get promotions and praise.
