Pros

None and FCB will lose SVB talent as a result.

Cons

Everything. No communication from FCB. They work in a silo. Family run so very traditional. No forward thinking. They come into offices and whole up in a room and say hi to zero SVBers. Thats weird. Focus is solely on clients, not employees. Without amazing talented employees you won’t have clients. Culture is NOT like SVB. Complete opposite and they fired all SVBs DEI team. Very poor messaging. No way for them to listen to employees questions or concerns. I loved SVB and FCB is trying to make it seem like we fit culturally but we do not and it’s being masked by client only centric. Sad bc theres so much FCB can pull and implement from SVB that is good! Losing talent as a result of culture and benefits. Losing smart and hard working talent.

Pros

Solid pay, comp structure Many good co-workers/partners Some flexibility in your day-to day

Cons

Nonstop Work Little to none support/training Mediocre at best management Numbers, numbers, and numbers is all they care about Headed down the path of Chase, Wells, BofA in a bad way of growing but looking at numbers nonstop and profits so they don’t care about employees or customers.
