Pros

The job is not difficult at all and the team in this office is good. After reading some of the other reviews, I am not sure what goes on in other offices across the country, but mine is a very small and close office and there is great team work. There is a lot of opportunity for movement within the company for full time permanent employees.

Cons

The pay and benefits are underwhelming to say the least. The only healthcare options offered are High Deductible plans that max at 80% coverage, which is fine as long as nothing major happens to you or a family member. The pay is well below what one would expect from a multi-billion dollar company. Also, for a company with a 401k division, an 8% match is an insult.

Pros

All development teams practice SCRUM. I have been in other organizations where Development practiced SCRUM/Agile but the business side of the company did not support it. At Ascensus, the entire company has bought into this approach including business and upper management.

Cons

Development is divided into multiple SCRUM teams. Cross team learning, coordination, and communication could be improved.

Pros

I had not previously worked in the financial services industry prior to join Ascensus but was immediately provided extensive internal training and educational resources to bring me up to speed with my peers. As a recent college grad, I have found Ascensus to be an excellent place to jump start my professional career. I have already attended 4 internal training courses and recently enrolled in a certification program (in which Ascensus has agreed to fund my participation). At my previous employer, the work environment was extremely competitive and individualistic. Here, associates have a team-oriented mindset and are supportive of one another's success. The internal associate recognition programs provide incentive to continue to work to the best of your ability.

Cons

Would like more opportunities to network with associates in different departments and learn about different functions across the company.
