I appreciate their transparency and candor.
Review from IT Dept
They seem to be always structuring initiatives to expand the business, they approve and support our initiatives to strengthen our IT Infrastructure and security posture and care about providing us employees with great benefits and occasional gifts and some perks that we all appreciate.
Review from IT Dept
Team players. Committed to getting the job done with efficiency and integrity.
Review from Operations Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
open and clear communication, regular town hall meetings which helps me to understand the department goals and what is anticipated in near future.
Review from IT Dept
They especially the leaders at branches need to be educated to hire/retain/promote bilinguals for the growth of the company. It is pathetic to see BM, OM, AO trying to avoid non Korean customers as they are not able to communicate and capable of understanding their needs.
Review from Operations Dept
set a clear direction and need to provide adequate training and system that simple and easy to process and adjust existing employees' payroll that do not meet today's standards
Review from Customer Support Dept
Transform corporate leadership by prioritizing authentic communication, clarifying goals for all and fostering an inclusive culture. Empower employees, shift from a subservient atmosphere and ensure a diverse leadership mix that promotes confidence, connectivity and humility.
Review from Admin Dept
It seems that they are only making demands rather than taking care of their employees. There is also a lack of compensation for employees who do a good job.
Review from Operations Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
I like insurance and 401K.
Review from Admin Dept
The pay, benefits, insurance coverage and bonuses.
Review from IT Dept
How it is structured, providing fair wages for the times we are living, giving employees a portion of the bonus at the end of the year (helps a lot), above average medical and insurance coverages packages that would cover us during extreme life events, not raising the cost of benefits to employees
Review from IT Dept
Health benefits here are excellent.
Review from Operations Dept
My share for health care benefits is low.
Review from Finance Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
i can make $20/hr flipping a burger at mcdonalds yet i make $17.50 handling millions of dollars in transactions . . .
Review from Operations Dept
I feel that my hourly wage is unfair. The inflation has gone up dramatically but my salary stays the same. The CEO makes so much money annually while everyone else get laid off or doesn't. People who haven't been laid off have to take the workload with no change in pay but more work.Extremely unfair
Review from Customer Support Dept
The percentage of deferred bonus is high and the vesting period for businesses is conservative and, when someone retires, they should not have to forfeit unpaid but earned bonuses.
Review from Business Development Dept
Compensation at the bank is not competitive.
Review from Finance Dept
High compensation or better benefits or perks.
Review from Customer Support Dept

Wonderful individuals that helped me learn internal processes upon joining and are always willing to help and provide guidance.
Review from IT Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Review from Operations Dept
Certain persons could develop better work ethic and learn to control their temper and prevent their mood swings from affecting their attitude and productivity at work.

My work is appreciated. Coworkers within my team are fun to work with.
Review from Operations Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Higher pay. Promotions. I feel like I am way underpaid. I do more work than my job description. I picked up more workload from laid off coworkers with no raise. There are rarely any promotions. Fast food workers are getting paid way more than I do as a banker. More work, stress but with low pay!!!!
Review from Customer Support Dept
Nothing special to look forward to. Very standard.
Review from Customer Support Dept
Please educate the leaders at branches that they are responsible for writing their own emails.
Review from Operations Dept
We are short staffed for a year. We still cannot hire anyone. Need coworkers at the branch.
