From where I was a year ago, I have done a complete 180 on how I feel. I am angry to come to work everyday and the only value that my manager finds in us is making refferals. Everything is always swept uder the rug and rules and regulation are cherry picked on what will help the manager.
Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
I love FMB and truly see myselfbeing here for the rest of my career. There are so many growth opputnunities, positive people that want to see you succeed, the company is very caring and open to change and always finding ways to make employees happy which is not somthing you can find just anywhere.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Very repsponsive and always happy to help me in any way.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
a manager that cares about the branch culture instead of just sweeping everyhing under the rug and only talking about sales.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Their efforts to evolve with the times as well as how open FMB is to receiving feedback and implementing it.
What makes you most happy at work?
Having a great team is crutial to employee happiness. I have seen a complete 180 in my mood and perception of work after being with a team who cares about their quality of work, cares about me and the team, and goes above and beyond to help me and eachother.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Yes I absoluetly feel undervalued as an expirienced employee that is bilingual/ have taken on many tasks with no pay increase and making the minimim possible here at first merchnats. I have tried to apply for a handful of other positions that ive been denied regardless of my excellent annual reviews
What makes you most happy at work?
Nothing anymore sadly. I used to be SUCH an advocate for FMB to anybody andd everybody including the dozens of new employees I have mentored and my close coworkers have told me how they have seen my attitude and perception change about FMB. Managers NEED to value their employees beyond us selling.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I love first merchants and evrything they stand for as well as their efforts that promote diversity, eqity and incluion. I would never leave soley because of compensation because so many other things that are hard to find, I have found here. Pay is quite low espeially with the growth we'vet taken on
What are some of the best things about your team?
Very supportive and always willing to help. When I was on the consumer team, I never felt supported, appreciated or like my team was happy to help but upon switching departments I am very happy with how amazing my team is, how willing they are to awnser questions and how hard they work for the team
