1st Source reviews about "staff"

Training is in south bend (paid for time of travel and mileage)

Resources for new or better ways to do things can take longer than planned. Other companies deal with that also. Some ineffective and displaced workers leave and make noise with false claims. Prior posts include those workers, so beware of those posts not being true.

being asked to work at other branches

Low staffed in the department, no flexible hours

I have noticed some posts from current and former staff members in leadership roles defending the organization and advising readers to treat negative reviews as rants from disgruntled former employees. All I can say is anyone considering an employer should beware of anyplace where leadership (former or current) goes out of its way to blame negative reviews on the reviewers instead of identifying and taking some semblance of ownership of the issues being brought forward. To cast reviewers' negative comments as merely noise from former employees who were on improvement plans and, therefore, already on their way out the door is utter deflection that is entirely unbecoming of anyone in a leadership role. Frankly, it says more about the caliber of those in management positions than it does anything else. Yes, people often rant on these types of sites. It takes leadership to look past the passion and identify the underlying issues. And it takes strong leadership to own up to those issues and address them. I know 1st Source is generally a good organization, and it's better than most. I felt privileged to work there. It is my hope that leadership takes the time to reflect on its shortcomings and implements the improvements needed that could make it a truly excellent place to work.

Did not offer as much pay as other banks/ credit unions for the same position.

Low pay, always short staffed, and the bank manager was never around. This company is definitely a jean day or pizza party as a reward kind of company.

- Sometimes there is a sluggishness to implement new technology/practices for the good of the company. - The health care benefits left a lot to be desired.

Old system and constant changes
