      Great people and great benefits

      Senior vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      ICBA has established an culture where every employee strives to accomplish the mission of creating and promoting an environment where community banks flourish. The executive leadership team is led by a visionary CEO, who, as a 3rd generation banker, understands the Association's membership on a more personal level than anyone could, and this shows by her dedication to its employees. The CFO and her staff work across the various departments and subsidiary companies to provide an unparalleled level of attentive, efficient, and effective customer service to all stakeholders and the Chief of Staff works to bring everyone together in an inclusive and collaborative manner across states lines. The education department is top notch, convention is of the highest quality you will go to, and government relations team is one of the most effective you will find inside the beltway. Oh, and the benefits are amongst the best in DC … by far.

      Cons

      At times, the organization can get caught up in it's own complexities and that encourages a reporting structure that is unclear across its subsidiary companies.

      Great place to work, BUT...

      Government relations
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Engaged membership who value the association, excellent benefits, some room to grow if you know where to look. Excellent work-life balance.

      Cons

      Entirely too top heavy with more than 25% of employees as senior management and another 40% vice presidents. Those at the top make obscene amounts of money and that does not "trickle down" to rank and file employees.

      Low Turnover and Great Benefits

      Vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Easy to come in, do your work and go home People have been employed there for decades Low to no drama Like working for the government but the benefits are better and free Awesome work space and location next to Metro Great place to get experience without high pressure Older work force who don't like change, so very stable and consistent Solid industry represented by the organization Paid parking and Metro If you can make it to the top, the pay is out of this world according to the 1099's (BMW's for executive management, special insurance, first class travel, bonuses)

      Cons

      Lack of upward mobility or promotability Poor internal communication Low employee morale/employees fear management Employees are equipment in attaining the organizations goals Poor salaries/low pay Very antiquated hierarchy of management who hold onto power instead of empowering others Non-functioning human resources department/high turnover in the roll Employees are sometimes bullied by managers Poor performers and abusive managers are not dealt with, fired or disciplined.
