Pros
When I first started at Alliance Data it was in the mid 90's and tattoos were not accepted in a professional atmosphere, but Alliance Data hired me and I thrived. The work was challenging but not difficult. Anyone who actually tried did well. I started in Auto Dial Collections and moved all the way to the Recovery Department. Alliance Data had a very competitive pay and salary but had an AMAZING bonus structure that was very generous. My supervisors and managers were all very personable and I had great coworkers, as well. The annual paid time off was very nice, too. The company went out of its way to make its employees feel welcome and appreciated by hosting very nice Holiday Parties, team outings and the monthly meetings where they handed out awards for productivity, attendance and other career milestones. The sky was the limit there because there was always an opportunity to advance or change positions. Alliance Data was a great experience and suggest that anyone willing to work and wanting fast career growth to apply.
Cons
Sometimes the incentive goals were a little high, but it was always worth it and never unattainable as long as you wanted to work.
