My personal advice is to not bank where you work. You don't want your financial information floating around at your own financial institution. And also, the Internal Audit department audit's employee accounts reqularly, and that is another invasion of privacy. I have a story about when I worked for Superior Bank in Birmingham. Back in 2006 I had a car accident, and the insurance company "totalled" out my car and issued me a check for the value of my car. Fortunately, I had equity in my car, so I was able to deposit $3000.00 of the check into my checking account that I could use to pay down on a new car. Well, one day, the Director of Security at my bank actually called me in to ask me about the recent "large deposit" to my account. I was appalled that they were asking me about my personal account, and about a totally legitimate transaction. I was offended by this invasion of privacy. You would think at least before they called me out, that the bank would have the technology to determine that this was an insurance check, and not just a "cash" deposit. My gosh! Everybody in the bank knew I had a car accident! Well, I wound up closing my "employee" account and I took my personal business to another financial institution. There are too may banks offering "free checking" to the public. So who wants to open up their private finances to their employer? It's beyond me!
