Pros

Nothing I can say except some co-workers are good at what they do but plan on leaving.

Cons

I was a legacy Fidelity before the merger between Fidelity and Ameris-more like an acquisition since it seems Ameris was/is making all the decisions. Conversion of systems was rushed and some of the choices made were not the better product. Some of Ameris’s systems are rather antiquated and needs to be automated, causing unnecessary work. There were mass layoffs which has really affected the moral of the remaining employees. Also, some employees from Ameris see legacy Fidelity employees as competition instead of co-workers. Lower level employees are left in the dark with no idea of company direction. Doesn’t feel like a community bank anymore and customers are showing their displeasure via reviews and social media. They are losing some top performers and need to change the way they do things.

Pros

Fast hiring process, HR was helpful throughout the process as well. Stipend for internet cost.

Cons

Touting internal growth while hardly offering any opportunities. Heavy on RTO attitude. Inept leadership. Unnecessarily complicated policies. Policies change often and you are expected to adapt at a moment's notice. You WILL be playing second fiddle to any potential new hires... they really struggle to value what they already have.
