Pros

Fast paced work environment. Multitasking keeps it interesting and challenging. Flexible hours based on different work shifts. Pay is acceptable and no unpaid overtime.

Cons

not really. Just a little more organization in work distribution to make sure that every team member contributes the same amount of results.

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong leadership. Exciting projects. If you're driven and put in the work you'll have opportunities grow.

Cons

Short term struggles with current enterprise cost cutting. Prior investment haven't paid off and loss of strategic partners is creating anxiety amongst employees in understanding ongoing strength.

Suffocating and great at giving false encouragement

Risk analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Energetic environment, on site nurse, GREAT sick and Vacation benefits.

Cons

Spend lots of time and money on Townhalls and having Sr Executives fly to SLC from NYC. 2 years ago, they fired both the bank presidents and filled the roles with 2 guys from NYC. Get messages and encouragement from managers that seems to be all talk and no action for your own development. They want you to have your very own "development plan" but don't give you any tools or encouragements to get there. Encourage metnorship and networking, but don't tell you how to advance your career. When you do get a raise, it's only 2% and that's for working your a** all year. They told me there was a hard cap for a raise I wanted for a promotion I received 5% TOTAL including the raise I was already going to get for my annual review.
