Descrivere brevemente la vostra esperienza complessiva presso la vostra azienda

Again, I love the people. The systems however are outdated and antiquated. I know executives are working on that but that's the bulk of the negative feedback I receive from customers; it's the biggest reason I lose them. The people are worth staying for though. I enjoy the camaraderie

Descrivere brevemente la vostra esperienza complessiva presso la vostra azienda

It's getting better. We had a rough conversion from Level One to First Merchants. Level One's customers were used to a certain level of technology that FMB couldn't provide; they're getting better at communicating with business customers though.

Descrivere brevemente la vostra esperienza complessiva presso la vostra azienda

I love the people and I'm sold on most of the vision for the future...but there are differences in what management sees and forward-facing employees see. We make some simple processes very difficult here. We can protect the customer from most of it, but they still see a lot of that.

Management seems to genuinely like their employees and believes the messaging they're conveying. That's important.

La cosa più positiva della cultura e l'ambiente presso la tua azienda?

For the most part, it's sincerely the teamwork, especially from FMB colleagues (speaking as a Level One person)

To help customers grow and help their banking go smoothly. Banking shouldn't be a pain in the fanny.

I'm underpaid according to industry standards; I worry about 2024 compensation. Based on the plan, it doesn't look like the same money can be made.

Helping customers with everything from their loan needs to their fraud. I like that they call me first for everything. They know me and they know that I know them.

That it's grandfathered in for now, for Level One employees. Otherwise, I have no idea how to decipher the compensation reports provided monthly, nor have I received a compensation agreement for 2023.

Che cosa ti rende più felice sul posto di lavoro?

Winning for the little guy. I love working with a customer for months to make sure we've got our request package buttoned up perfectly; it sores through underwriting and a perfect approval is given. Such a win for the small business owner.

Di cosa hanno bisogno i tuoi colleghi migliorare e come si potrebbe lavorare meglio insieme?

I think the previous 2 questions were too vague. For the most part, I love my co-workers but I scored on an average for the absolute impossible co-workers. Some in the documentation unit are so difficult to work with that it effects my portfolio customers.
