Really wants to claim diversity but not ready to put in the work for it - Recensione dipendente - Retail Banker presso First Financial Bank Texas

• Highly uncompetitive pay compared to almost any other bank. • Brags that out of 1400+ employees, 73.02% are female and 26.88% male, as well as 29.79% minorities – which sounds great, but that diversity exists only in their lower and middle ranks. Out of 17 Presidents, at least 88% are white and 76.47% are male – completely reversing the gender demographic they boast about. Out of 12 Chairmen, all are male and only 1 is not white. Out of 15 CEOs, 14 are white and 14 are male. • Until the past several years, FFB’s benefits packet specifically barred benefits from extending outside of “opposite-sex” spouses until it vanished without a word of apology or regret towards decades of discrimination perpetuated by the bank and its leadership. • Not unheard of to hear casual transphobic or homophobic remarks made by VPs, Presidents, or CEOs. • In Abilene, it’s not uncommon to hear remarks varying from vaguely racist up to a situation where I saw a black coworker treated so unfairly by a racist manager that they quit. I don’t know if they ever contacted HR about it but, based on their treatment by someone FFB allowed into a managerial position, they may not have trusted HR to handle the situation. • Did NOT handle COVID well. They essentially refused to take it seriously until it actually began to affect Abilene.
