Pros

Great management team that is supportive and approachable. The benefits package is excellent, and the compensation structure of base pay plus commission provides stability. The company pays for all work-related expenses, including gas and continuing education, which is a major advantage. Cross-department collaboration is generally smooth, and most teams are easy to work with.

Cons

There have been several rounds of layoffs throughout the year, which has created instability and uncertainty within the department. The appraisal department in particular has been shrinking. Communication between lenders and appraisers can be inconsistent, which sometimes creates confusion or inefficiencies. Due dates can be aggressive, adding pressure to workloads. While compensation is stable, overall pay is average compared to the broader appraisal market.

Pros

Laid back production work in an office setting. Great management.

Cons

Steep learning curve for the machines. Can be frustrating as machinery only works for about a minute before you have to make adjustments.

Peers are nice people Benefits and PTO are good Free coffee

Cons

Private Wealth is losing money - go to affluent for better management and comp All other divisions have been burned by PWM local leadership (current and prior) so the referral pipeline dried up and goals are increasing The best staff and clients keep leaving Outdated systems failing + refusal to pay to upgrade = constant data loss Clients login and their accounts are missing, but you are expected to sell services to clients with constant service failures Everyone is overworked. Every team is understaffed It takes months to get approvals Low pay, below other banks but high sales pressure We are all told we are overpaid because salaries were lowered and can never have raises again as long as we stay No work life balance Everyone is stressed and miserable- morale in the toilet Jobs sit unfilled for a year. Then they hire people with zero experience and throw them in the deep end/ set them up to fail and then lay them off Clients suffer from the lack of staff with needed expertise
