Pros

Company has great benefits and allows remote access in most departments.

Cons

I miss the old days where people respected each other. We felt the stress of the bad economy long before the rest of the non-financial world did. This created a very stressful environment where everyone was afraid of losing their job and was only concerned about getting their own work done before helping others. Employees have become a number and are no longer important.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
