Succession, but Dumber - Vice President Trustmark Employee Review

mission/values-based company; caring, collaborative, inclusive

location in Lake Forest can be challenging

PTO time wasn’t bad but hard to use

Never worked for a company that valued loyalty and knowledge less than Trustmark. 1 year, 5 years, 10 years, 30 years: if they’ll save a penny by cutting you loose even if it costs the team decades of knowledge they’ll do it. Sales is the company darling at the detriment to every other team and existing customer satisfaction. Yearly raises are small, it takes ~5 years to feel the increase in your paycheck. Morale is underground levels of low. Coworkers cry after work or on the job. Teams are understaffed and overworked, and something has happened to leadership. Like watching a virus spread through the ranks. Getting meaner, stricter, playing favorites, and micro-managing to the point it’s hard to work. Must finish extraordinary amounts of daily tasks without 10 minutes of over time or you’ll be scolded like a child for costing the company 5 cents on your next paycheck. Whispers of certain firings being consequences for the person speaking up. Slow rot has set in, sad to watch. Founders of Brotherhood of All Railway Employees are rolling in their graves.
