Pros

Decent benefits. Company is owned by the big banks which is the only reason they are still in business.

Cons

Poor management and culture. Company has no vision and high rate of turnover. HR department has no regard for employee concerns. I have seen quite a few employees get put on notice and eventually fired for no reason other than they spoke to HR about a company problem.

Pros

Starting off the pay and benefits are really good. The culture of the company was also great. Your coworkers are quick to teach you as well as some of your supervisors, but that quickly ended after the New CEO. Now time for the cons.

Cons

1. Unlimited pto is not unlimited. Like other company's they count the amount of days you take off. While leadership can take truly unlimited. 2. Very much a favoritism game here. If you are not in the circle or club you will feel it. 3. Raises and bonuses are a joke. Think you'll get the standard 3% raise...nope your supervisor will remember the one email you forgot to send. The rest of the year you might have crushed it but they will knock you down to a 1%. Then they will nickle and dime your bonus. 4. Don't like the department you are in. They preach that you can interview out. Well like I said before if you are not part of the club, your not moving. You will go through a series of interviews and talk about how much they love you and want you on your team, then last second they will pull the rug from you. 5.Complete lack of follow through from supervisors. Numerous times I asked for a more efficient coach that wasn't the same level as me. I was promised one and he never made time for me. 6. No sense of direction. 7. No training programs, good luck getting started, there are no training programs it is institutionalized knowledge.

Soulless corporation with no moral compass

Pros

Some seriously skilled and good people who are actually doing the work. The Benefits team is cool.

Cons

This is a soulless corporation with no moral compass. You can work extra hours and weekends, exceed expectations in all areas, correct the mistakes of incompetent co-workers, and all this will mean nothing. If you’re an executive and waste hundreds of thousands of dollars you get a pass. If you’re an exceptional worker and make reasonable requests they will be denied, and if you pursue the requests you will be punished. Middle and upper management is about their own self-preservation. You will be misled to thinking they care about you. In order to save their own position they will smile to your face and stab you in the back. They take no responsibility for their actions, and their actions do not match their words. HR is a toxic organization that serves itself and the interests of the corporation. You are human capital, and this means they will use you until you’re spent and there is nothing left. HR should be resources for humans, not humans as resources. Look at the interview reviews and draw your own conclusions about recruiting. Claims of wanting to attract and keep top talent runs counter to every action they take, which results in top talent being let go or getting disgusted and leaving. The one bright spot in the HR group is the Benefits team which has always been extremely helpful. Favoritism is rampant. The return to office mandate has many exceptions for middle and upper management. If you’re a worker expect to commute unreasonable distances each way, yet many managers and directors are fully remote. The open office plan is horrible, a cacophony of aisle and hallway conversations with absolutely zero privacy. Don’t punish your employees because the previous CEO decided to waste thousands of dollars signing a long term lease at a fancy Scottsdale address for way more office than is needed. This is an organization in turmoil. 3rd CEO and 4th CTO within ten years. There is an abundance of middle and upper management, but many of them have no direct reports, and you’d be hard pressed to figure out what they actually do. Leadership is not forcing employees in to an office to save face, leadership is not pretending you support your employees, and HR is not about managing humans as capital.
