Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I believe that there should be compensation for individuals that work at faster paced offices. That's all. Other than that, I do not feel undervalued in any way

I believe that our executive team truly wants us to succeed and they want us to prosper, just like they want us to help our customers to succeed and prosper.

I am at the bottom of the pay scale. The pay scales changed in 2024, which put us old time bankers at the bottom of the scale. It needs to be fixed.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

If our benefit package was better, I would not feel underpaid. It's so expensive to just go to a Dr appointment to get a physical. It's not the bank's fault that the insurance is awful. Perhaps we just need to change insurance plans.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I just know that there should be some consideration for employees that work at the larger and busier branches to be compensated based on that. I don't think that we get very many perks. A Small discount on loans, no annual fee on ODP's or HELOC's, but really nothing else in regard to perks

What makes you most happy at work?

I enjoy the work that I do. My role requires me to take care of my SA team. For me, it simply means that the SA's are my customers and it is important to me to help them to learn, grow and advance in their careers. That is a rewarding feeling for me. It makes me happy to help my team.
