      Toxic management and culture

      Personal banker
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Pay was decent and time off was okay not as great as they make it out to be.

      Cons

      MANAGEMENT. This whole company is like a cult. "Culture" this "culture" that. Its all about who you know and dont expect upper management to correct their branch managers because they will just tell you they are the best manager ever. Manager was a sad excuse for a leader didnt want to be bothered with managing her staff or knowing the own company systems. Its all about popularity and sucking up to management and telling them theyre right. If you dont they will make your life HELL and hide it behind a smile saying maybe theyre just too "direct" dont expect any help and if youre fine with doing all the work and not questioning things then go for it.

      Terrible Bank - Terrible Culture - No Employee Advocacy

      Credit analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      There are no pros in the Charlotte office

      Cons

      This was my first experience working at a bank where there was no training, development, or mentorship provided. During my brief three-week tenure, it became evident that the organization lacked essential structure, established processes, and even a basic credit workflow. Had this been communicated prior to onboarding, I would have better understood the significant challenges of this bank. Prospective employees should be aware that engagement, communication, and employee advocacy were notably absent in my experience. If you currently have a strong, supportive manager, that stability is far more valuable than what this organization will offer. Overall, it was the most disorganized banking environment I have encountered.
