This company displays a do more with less environment. Stong employees are rewarded with more work for less pay while weaker employees who spend time pleasing upper management are rewarded with more pay less restriction and less work.

We are all smart and hardworking.

I feel that I am undervalued.

Fair pay and open communication

Our team is not inclusive.

Upper management should not show favoritism to employees within a team.

I am not paid competitively for what I contribute to first merchants.

be less dismissive, more inclusive, be supportive and accepting of different personalities

Being individual, setting clear achievable goals as opposed to intangible or perception based milestones

To be paid based on my body of work as opposed to subjective views of management.

I feel isolated within my team underpaid and undervalued. Favoritism has created a lot of the issues I am currently facing.

The interactions I get to have with those I don't work with directly and the opportunities to collaborate as the result of those interactions

leadership need to do a better job of paying employees competitively so they dont have to leave FMB to be paid what theyre actually worth. Helping you prosper should start with supporting the employees.

I have been meeting tangible standard for to elevate to the next level for years and I have always been paid both below market level and at the minimum level I could be paid even though I am a high achiever who displays all the values FMB claims to hold in its esteem.

FMB is not interested in helping its employees propser. I have observed a do more with less approach from all upper managements which has had a largely negative impact on morale of those who want to see the bank succeed and are willing to go above and beyond to ensure that it does.
