Pros

get to know how the educational loans work, as far as payments, how to postpone payments if neeeded.

Cons

was a very stressful enviorment. they tell you they will work with certain situations when it comes time to there is nothing that can be done. Also some of the sups seem not to care to much about what is going on, you can count on people knowing your business if you tell something personal to certain sups..

Pros

The work culture is quite chill and results-focused. The office space is also quite decent.

Cons

Being a bank, it’s highly regulated so everything we do must go through a thorough compliance review.

Pros

The biggest pros for me are the people and the opportunities for growth. The culture is very team-oriented, and there’s a genuine willingness to support one another and see each other succeed. I also appreciate that the company is open to trying new approaches and evolving how we work, which creates meaningful opportunities to learn, take on new challenges, and continue developing professionally.

Cons

One area for improvement would be system modernization, as updates and enhancements can be slow and sometimes create inefficiencies in day-to-day work. Additionally, communication across departments during issues or changes could be more consistent and timely to ensure teams are fully informed and able to respond effectively.
