Compensation is actually on the light side relative to peers, but at a smaller company I understand it.

paid vacation and sick days for part time. that is really a blessing First Merchants does

Insurance and great family/work balance

Review from Customer Success Dept

The pay raise was a great help

Review from Customer Success Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Compensation does not adequately reflect the volume of work and specific responsibilities that are required of one in my position. I believe pay should more directly reward strong performance matched with volume and productivity which varies from person to person and branch to branch.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Referral goals are unattainable in a small branch. Hourly base pay is low.

Review from Customer Success Dept

need more pay and better benefits

Review from Customer Success Dept

With a market adjustment in the banking centers, I now make the same hourly rate as someone who has been in this same role for less than 6 months. While I have been in this role for over three years now. How is that fair to those people? Loyalty and tenure do not go very fair it seems.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Need to be more proactive.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Management should ask before placing a service associate at the drive-thru position. I was placed there by force and had to no choice, but to accept it. Co-workers should not talk bad about customers after he or she leaves.

Review from Customer Success Dept

They say some out-of-pocket things that aren't really work appropriate. They also make fun of customers and sometimes other company coworkers behind their backs.

A patient and understanding attitude and willingness to assist even when the questions may seem silly to them.

Everyone in every department is connected and resourceful. Everyone is vauled in their own way of success.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

everything, more offers for opening a checking, more bonuses for the employees. Its extremely boring and micromanaging

I think the company culture is great, it's just my branch's culture is close-minded and uncomfortable.
