Great Company to Work For!
|
|
Great group of employees Low turnover of employees Great benefits, including PTO and (3) personal days No micromanaging managers Some have the option of working remote if that's what you are in to Do your job and all is well!
|
When the folks that are supposed to be in the office don't come in, it makes it challenging for those that are in the office.

In these challenging banking/lending times of high interest rates and a volatile market, management is doing the best that they can with what they have. Everyone is feeling the pangs of the never-ending high interest rate hikes to combat inflation and the trickle-down effects it has on the employees.

Listen to your workers and speak to them! If you never hear from the CEO, even though layoffs are happening constantly, there's a problem.

New Management Is Trying To Do The Right Thing
|
|
Something happened and the new leadership is trying to improve culture.
|
Old management left a legacy of bad behavior that will take too long to fix. Playing video games in offices, never working and endless self-promotion by the prior team lead to a culture that became toxic. Is is slowly getting better, but it simply took too long to recognize.
