Wow is this management so bad
May 10, 2023 - Anonymous/Employee in Hicksville, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
It is a job and they give you a paycheck
Cons
Wow is this management so bad! If you've ever watched Succession or American Autos, you know how this place functions. It's a farce of a place to work and changing the name to Flagstar will not change the poor, poor culture of this place. Management style is from the 1970s/80s, meaning if you a father or mother and have a child, tough cookies. Better hope you have some family or outside support because this companydoes not give a flying f-word about your kid. No empathy given, even when said management has been in your position . And when you inquire why, they say they had to deal with it and so do you too! It's one breathe away from saying if I had to be sexually harassed, so do you too because that's the job and that's what it takes to succeed. Sorry guys, there's much better places to work and if you are reading this to gauge what it's like to work here, run away as fast as you can! I can not stress that enough! I had an emergency kid situation and my day off was DENIED. I will repeat - MY REQUEST WAS DENIED!! It was an emergency situation! not sure if that's legal but WOW! And at that time, remote work was an option (it's not an option anymore, FYI) and even offering to work remotely was DENIED. If I hadn't experienced it myself, I would have never believed it. Been working since I was 12 and I've NEVER had anyone deny me a day off, especially for an emergency situation!

The staff was friendly and courteous
Cons
Looks like management hasn't updated the teller's computer system since the 70's. Was doing onboarding for a few weeks. I was getting along with staff and doing alright for a new hire and out of the blue they let me go. No warning no misbehavior... just poof

It's ok
Mar 11, 2023 - Senior Data Quality Analyst in Hicksville, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Hours are good, never expected to work late. Direct managers are really interested in your progression as a professional
Cons
Senior management is lacking in communication, often coming off as vague or overselling the reality on the ground. Following merger with flagstar there was lots of talk about positive culture change and within a few weeks they announced (through back channels, not even directly) that they were ending work from home
