Avoid at all cost. Extremely negative culture.

Pros

Handful of people who are still trying to make the company proud by bringing to the table no one can. However these people are actively suppressed by deploying careful strategies by incapable people who who have now become leaders. These incapable people have formed alliances through which they have progressed by feeding rumours and through bad culture of complaining behind back rather than talking, and crafting strategies to show talented people in bad light.

Cons

Many. This space is too small to describe. Company has no real growth, no real people, and the handful talent which is left will soon leave due to this culture of suppression, rumors and lies. There is always a chance that some of the tormented employees will soon report the company to the regulators, so if you are trying to onboard this dangerous ship, either as an investor or employee avoid at all costs.

A difficult company to work for

Pros

Some good, friendly people who want to do good by the business.

Cons

The company have gone through several phases and strategies in two years but this one is the worst. The previous 5 months have been arduous to the point where I have had to visit the doctor. There is no support from leadership specifically our senior leader. What is spoken in a forum to us with an audience is very different to how we are spoken to individually. There is a mendacious narrative therefore we now refrain from challenging or suggesting solutions through fear of repercussion. Being spoken to in an acerbic manner is a daily occurrence. We are in earnest trying to make the bank succeed but there is no willing support from the executive team and the only solution they have is a new product that if they research thoroughly, they would quickly conclude, there is undeniably no appetite in the market that will get the bank in the position it wants to be in. There is no one at executive level that at depth understands the lending market and their decisions on lending strategies are cryptic and enigmatic. Trust between team and senior leader is lost.

Pros

Capital raise so we can lend. Strong teams with good work ethic. Incoming CEO is positive.

Cons

Confusing lending targets that have not been formally shared yet keep increasing. Not done business for so long that external contacts diminished but targets are huge. Job title changes have bewildered brokers. A change we didn’t want and had we known, would have advised against. Time is spent building relationships again and explaining role title. Lack of trust with leaders. Bonus to be cut. Expect quiet quitting to take place even resignations. Been told if we don’t like it, this place not for us but up until 3 months ago, it was ok.
