Décrivez brièvement votre expérience globale dans votre entreprise.

I'm not a fan of this. I'm very disconnected and feel like I can't be myself here. My job is monotonous every single day and there's no other positions to take. Stuck in a rut of this type of job isn't good for anyone. You need to invest into mental health days for your employees as well!

Qu’est-ce qui vous plaît le plus dans l’équipe de direction?

They seem to have a good work dynamic and relationship amongst them.

Qu’est-ce qui ne va pas et comment cela peut-il être amélioré?

There's no culture here. There's no incentives unless you're in sales. There's no real reason to come to work--it's not enjoyable.

Qu’est-ce que vos collègues doivent améliorer et comment pouvez-vous mieux travailler ensemble?

We need younger, more diverse employees who don't have the same exact mindset as the 90% of employees already at this company.

Qu’est-ce qui ne va pas et comment cela peut-il être amélioré?

It's moreso me needing to find a new job in a new company for me to be happy everyday. I dread coming to work.

Que faut-il changer pour améliorer la culture de l’entreprise?

I personally don't relate to anyone here in Michigan. I spend most of my days in silence which is mentally detrimental to one's work ethic.

Que faut-il changer pour améliorer la culture de l’entreprise?

We don't have a lot of young people who work here to connect with. I'm one of the youngest people in the building at 30 years old.

Qu’est-ce que vos collègues doivent améliorer et comment pouvez-vous mieux travailler ensemble?

We don't really know one another and maybe that's just what happens. This bank is definitely less diverse and intermixed than my previous employer who thrived on the culture of their employees.

Pourquoi vous sentez-vous sous-évalué et qu’est-ce qui vous rassurerait par rapport à votre rémunération?

Compensation has NOT been updated in years; the market and economy is increasingly rising with no salary match. I personally don't make enough to cover my bills. It's sad to see such a 'billion dollar bank' be so incredibly cheap to their employees. Our benefits are horrendously expensive.

De quoi l’équipe de direction a-t-elle besoin pour s’améliorer?

There is a HUGE lack of diversity in this company both internally and externally. Lots of people are disconnected with one another and leadership seems to only care about the numbers and how to make themselves look the best. There needs to be more/better communication from the execs to our managers.

Pourquoi vous sentez-vous sous-évalué et qu’est-ce qui vous rassurerait par rapport à votre rémunération?

There are no incentives to work here, at least in Michigan. No bonuses (which is a concern), no catered food, no events, no community service events, no competitive wages, no employee appreciation events, nothing that makes me want to stay here. I feel like I am in a locked cage every day.
