Pros

Nice people, opportunity for growth, variety of things to do, convenient location and good products. Plenty of job security.

Cons

Bad training, unpaid OT, poor leadership, high turnover from overwork, being berated by lenders because we can't deliver what they need due to poor training and too much work on our plates from others leaving. We were told in our interviews we would rarely work OT but I have done so nearly every day for over 6 months and some have been over a year. The new people aren't loaded down at first, but eventually they will when a long-term person leaves because they can't afford to work unpaid OT and have time taken away from their families. The long-term people are told to not let their feelings be known to the new ones to not scare them off. We're worn out and frustrated.

Pros

Small enough company that you can talk to leadership and voices matter. Culture used to be great. Lots of middle management understands the obstacles employees face and fights for the better.

Cons

The entire company is centered around Arkansas/Little Rock/Pine Bluff. There are other markets with massive opportunity that are always getting ignored. Everything is looked at through the lens of how things are done, ran, budgeted, ect in LR. Lots of recent change has caused a lot of bankers to leave and start looking for jobs elsewhere because they’re tired of lack of leadership.
