I've had many great years at South Side Bank.  With the new merger coming up and the uncertainty about jobs, I'm just trying to get a feel for what other jobs I might be qualified for.

I love working at southside, unfortunately work under a manager that doesn't care who is taken down for them to get ahead. I don't care for being how i was talked to from management. instead of being used as an asset im being torn down.

Overall I am grateful for this experience. The main reason is I have learned the difference between what makes a great manager that cares about their team and what makes a selfish one that is only in it for themselves. I had both in a short time. 

Definitely cliquey and new hires make as much as tenured employees. Shop around for better pay. They give out a ton of "swag" but not bonuses. Be careful of who you trust as a mentor. If you upset them in any way, your life will be a torture. 

South Side Bank was a great place to work for.  Was there 16 wonderful years.  Had many promotions and learned a lot over the years, but unfortunately it got bought out by another bank, and no longer needed my services.

Good benefits, below average pay for industry standards, no loyalty shown to long-tenured employees.  Raises/promotions often given to external applicants vs. internal promotions.  Poor upper management creating a toxic culture.
