Vantaggi
Paid time off package was generous. Because we were an out-of-footprint office we had a tiny bit of autonomy in regard to work / life balance. Also because we were out-of-footprint I was able to enhance our working environment morale more than if we had been in a corporate location.
Svantaggi
KeyCorp operates in a hierarchal manner. Most decisions are made from the "Ivory Tower" and passed down to all lines of business. While these decisions might work for one LOB, they may not work for all. Procedures aren't implemented consistently resulting is material and monetary waste. Rollouts of new software aren't well thoughtout, also resulting in wasted resources. My feeling is that KeyCorp is very management heavy. Management has been stepping on each other for a long time, trying to justify keeping their jobs. While this is happening offices nation wide have been closed and talented staff has been reduced. The lines-of-business that were once the "Golden Child" have now been dubbed "The Ugly Step Child" and banished to the basement.
