Vantaggi
Low pressure environment. You can do a minimal amount and still be employed. There are lots of low energy people who lack drive working here.
Svantaggi
Long time executives, former hires of the previous CEO, continue to be in the organization. The commercial bank leadership lacks vision and quality. There is no strategy nor ability to differentiate. They think that being "Wisconsin's only headquartered bank" provides some differentiation and a reason to bank here. The Milwaukee commercial bank team is filled with lots of legacy players who don't do the basics to succeed, but survive because they are attached to legacy client relationships. No sales culture or new business generation at all. Credit decision team is far behind the industry on knowledge, structuring techniques and willingness to stretch for new opportunities. Overall, a D player in the market with a constant revolving door of people who come and go because the results stay the same (bad).
