The PrivateBank Reviews

Working for this place was the worst career decision I ever made. If you are not a part of the good old boys club you don't stand a chance when speaking out against things you see are wrong. Middle management is incompetent as it relates to developing their employees. Instead of learning where disconnects are with employees they rely on individuals that are incapable of leading anyone due to their own personality or character flaws. If they determine that they don't like you they will do any and everything including lie to get you out of there. Unfortunately human resources is a joke because they don't look into any issues or grievances brought to them. Management will literally make false accusations and when asked simple questions to support their accusations they can't give any proof yet HR will still side with the managers. The diversity in this area is almost non existent but they will act as if it is. Gossip runs rampant in this place and it almost seems that if you separate yourself from it you will become an target too. I literally was told that I seemed too cocky because I didn't involve myself (This was pertaining to the gossip). Morale is very low among individuals in this group as management is given complete autonomy to treat their employees like crap. I knew something was wrong as soon as I started because there were red flags from the very first day and because of this I continued interviewing and applying to other companies. Luckily I was able to leave this terrible place in a short amount of time as I received offers elsewhere.

Disappointing attempt to cultivate a team oriented Internal Audit culture by ex-Big Four task delegators. Public accounting hours are expected but not communicated or rewarded.
