I have had a very positive experience at FMB.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
I like working for my company but I feel like the DEI agenda is condescending and feels too obligatory and like "virtue signaling" rather than organic.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Good. However, there are still times I feel like upper management wants us to say what they want to hear rather than what we NEED them to hear. And when we say what we want to say, the response is "what are you doing or what MORE will you do to solve this on your own".
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Good but I feel like the DEI initiatives can come across inauthentic.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
I am mostly proud to work for FMB except I think the DEI initiatives are well-intentioned but misguided. Sometimes the social media posts I see are preachy and put too much emphasis on identity. DEI puts people in separate boxes (allies or not) and it's 2025-this should not be happening anymore.

Despite being here 10 years and with AVP status, I make the lowest possible for my position.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I am at the VERY low end of the range and I've been in my position for several years with multiple "exceeds expectations" ratings.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
When bottom level of pay is raised, consideration is not given for others so if you've had a promotion or raise, it's like it didn't happen because everyone else just got their pay raised to the same as yours.
