This company is all based on kissing butt. If you aren’t on top of the managers and supervisors, they will forget about you. Even if you go above and beyond. They don’t see work ethic. They rather give people who have pull higher positions. They are also short staffed, so good luck working there and doing more than your job title. The managers could care less about their employees and the only time you get noticed is when you do something wrong. The hire ups also have nothing better to do and will constantly come down and nit-pick everything. They will stare at you as you work and put a ridiculous amount of pressure on you. You have no work life balance. And the managers expect you to put your job first ALWAYS. You will be disrespected and nothing will come of it if you tell HR. Especially if they are a “favorite”. There’s no true work ethic here. It’s 100% about favorites. Only apply if you no other prospects! 

Great place to work for awhile.  I learned many things. I loved working and helping customers on a daily basis with their accounts.  I learned about loans, especially  home morgages.  Whenever there was a new product to offer, I usually won the contests for the new product. A typical day was; opening checking, savings, help customers submitting their morgage paper, stopping payment on a check, ordering bank cards, taking customers into Safe Deposit, ordering new checks when they run out, opening CD's, open IRA's and much more.The hardest part was introducing new products. Just when you mastered the product, they would change it to make it better. There were offering new products constantly.I know there is a lot of competition with other banks, but it was exusting.

Working at the Hicksville branch means that you'll be working at two different locations. One being a traditional bank, and the other being a drive-up location. The drive-up location involves being alone in the building for up to a 12 hour shift.

Management has a very strong loyalty to the company, and expects the same from every employee. Management is unafraid to contact employees on their days off and in the middle of the night for work reasons, regardless of if you're part time or full time. There is no flexibility with work schedules, as management insisted that the job should come before all other priorities in life, such as other jobs, family, or school.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The company has its perks,  sweet people, make lots of connections and opportunity for growth. The best part is the flexibility. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part could be juggling multiple task at once especially during busy times when we could be short staffed. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Different departments have different ambiences but my department is very delightful and uplifting amazing team. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I come in, greet my team, sign in, take care of customers on the phone through chat and emails along with completing reports.

As an intern, my tasks mainly entailed alphabetically filing customer agreement forms and documents related to their accounts. In addition, I scanned, copied, and filed, in that order, more customer related account information. The people who worked there were incredibly friendly and never went a day (at least the day I worked there) without joking and jollying. There conversations were enough to brighten the mood. I never got tired of asking into that building either. Filing with an end far from sight wasn't exactly eventful, but indulging in a lunchtime interlude on your way out of the building and into it, you can't help but feel how rich in history that building is.

A typical day at work wpuld begin around 9am and consist of opening the building, getting desks and cash registers prepared before customer came inside.

I would usually have clients come to my desk and resolve whatever issues took place whether is was a digital issue or an account opening.

Management relationship was great however we were very short staffed which made the day seem much busier but I didn't mind the hustle and bustle.

I gained a lot of confidence at my platform from being with customer taking phone calls and being able to come up with solutions with all the different tasks thrown at you on a daily basis.
