A Textbook Toxic Work Environment - Appraiser Trustco Bank Employee Review

Trustco does not care about their employees. Pay is low, raises are few, and employee turnover is high. The job is high-stress. There are employee shortages due to burnout and poor management. Some are lucky to have a good manager (I was)--but nearly all of upper management will cut your throat for advancement or to save the bank a few dollars. Rumors and gossip are the backbone of the company. The physical/mental health of their employees are of no consequence to Trustco. Voicing concerns may cause retaliation from human resources. If you still decide to work for Trustco Bank, I recommend you read the handbook carefully --specifically PTO. After I put in &and completed my two weeks notice, I had 8 days of PTO saved. Due to the poor wording of the handbook, I was blindsided when I only received 2 hours pay. I also recommend you continue your job search and find something better as quickly as possible. Let them be an intermittent paycheck--you’re only valuing them as they value their employees.
