Pros

From Senior Executives to member-facing employees, the majority of the organization believes in and lives our values. Four weeks of PTO as a new hire is nice. Good overall benefits package.

Cons

401(k) match and vesting isn't competitive. The Total Rewards leader does not seem to value the Benefits group. There had been 2 of us administering benefits for all 2,300+ employees. We would work 10+ hour days, usually without breaks longer than a quick trip to the restroom, while other members of the team have very little to do, yet nobody helps. Other groups within TR receive additional headcount while the Benefits team is left to drown. A departmental culture of selective cooperation exists and is seemingly supported. These issues have been brought to TR leadership's attention many times with no action taken. Is there any wonder why I am the 3rd person in my position in the last 18 months and the second to leave without having another position lined up?

Nice people, nice members. Good culture.

Slow moving decisions with fast moving thinkers can be challenging. But that's the case at most companies.
