Go community bank/ credit union vs large banks. They may not have the sexiest looking website/ app but tend to have the best local ppl in banking. Since the deposits are local they tend to give loans in the community they serve and give back to local charities. Not all Community banks / credit unions are equal. Do a little research. If avoiding fees is your priority, ask to see their schedule of fees and account disclosures. See/ask what are ways to avoid fees. Prior to opening an account. If giving back to community is your thing look and see if the community bank/ credit union is giving back to your community or favorite local charity. If how they treat employees is your thing check and see industry employee surveys like Boston Globe Top places to work.
