Pros

There was an opportunity for growth before. Not any longer.

Cons

I worked at this company for over eight years, experiencing professional growth and advancement. However, significant changes occurred after the construction of the new Rio building. Previously, there was a stronger emphasis on values over profit, but financial priorities shifted over time. Massive layoffs followed a costly rebranding effort that was not effectively implemented across the business, resulting in two internal names due to licensing issues. Despite being told at every town hall that the company had a successful quarter, layoffs were followed by large-scale rehiring events, creating a repetitive cycle. Internally, systems are disorganized, with frequent changes to software subscriptions without proper testing, leading to constant transitions. Raises are capped at 3% due to financial mismanagement. Bonus trackers are inconsistently implemented, appearing one month, disappearing the next, and then being replaced or forgotten. Work expectations are inconsistent, with layoffs causing critical tasks to fall through the cracks. Employees are often required to take on additional responsibilities without adequate training or guidance. There is an excessive number of Zoom meetings, sometimes totaling over five hours per week with the same individuals, often revisiting the same unresolved issues.

Pros

If you are in their good side they take care of you. If not they don’t want to know your situation and it’s up to you to figure it out. Diversity is culture

Cons

So many… I love being a debt consultant. Im already too in my class at my new company. A few years ago I caught the tail end of their greatness but unfortunately with their loss of funds due to changes in banking and their commitment to mortgages they fell away from the core of the business. Taking care of the people who take care of their clients. Not paying attention to the bad eggs who lie and give false promises and hide it by removing the monitoring availability. Hiding the targets with numbers that don’t make sense and vary. Reducing yourselves to bottom of the barrel leads that also lie and promise clients things that don’t exist. Preying on their vulnerability. Then instead of changing offering $ to overcome the lies. You lost me with this.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are always looking for ways to continue to get better and we understand there was some frustration with changes to the commission plans that were done with the best intentions. We heard the feedback and have worked hard over the last several months to find ways to improve the compensation plan. We are thrilled to say that our recent reporting for all of our Debt Consultant (DC) commissions show that they are higher than they have been in over 5 years. We are confident that we have the right plan to incentivize our DCs to achieve their own financial goals while helping our members move forward on a path to better financial future.

Pros

Seemed like they cared about their employees for most of the time, pay and benefits are good.

Cons

Constantly moving the bar on what is expected, contently changing for the worse, no work life balance.
