Pros

My coworkers have been amazing to work with. Collaborating with them has been such a great time, and makes working here a bit bearable.

Cons

Expectations placed on employees are high, but the pay and benefits we receive don’t match it. There isn’t much room for advancement either due to how biased leadership can be. If you’re looking to grow your career, you’d be better off at other companies.

We're sorry to hear you felt that your pay and benefits didn't match your work expectations and you feel that there's limited room for advancement. We're not sure what department you were in, but we've made compensation changes for our Sales Team recently to address these concerns. Otherwise, we frequently run competitive analysis on our compensation/pay/benefits to ensure we're keeping up with the industry standards. We're also getting ready to roll out a new leadership model, along with career pathing and leveling that will make it clear how to advance within the organization. We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best in your next career move,

Pros

The culture is great here- you work with leaders that genuinely show an interest in your growth and if you are willing to learn and put in continuous effort, they will help you get to where you want to be. The company also does a great job and listening and applying feedback from their employees--not just with yearly surveys but also in our day to day operations.

Cons

As the company advances with certain technologies and softwares, rollouts can be difficult on employees. While the intent is always good and meant for the overall benefit of the employees, there is a lack of communication and structure at times during rollouts. It would also be beneficial to do more beta testing, rather than rolling out the entire company.

Pros

- The people are generally very kind and collaborative broadly. - I believe the company is genuine in its mission to only earn profits by helping everyday Americans move forward on the path to a better financial future. - The company at large and some of its leaders aren't afraid to try things and then pivot if they don't work to try something else, instead of doubling down over pride or ego or stubbornness.

Cons

- There's a lack of clear and strategic leadership that leaves job ambiguity, which places the employee at a disadvantage with performance measurement, which is how they award quarterly bonuses. Without clear SMART goals, it becomes a game of bring me a rock, but not that rock. - Towards the end, they were implementing a start-up entrepreneurial mindset style that was leaning away from valuing work/life balance and getting more demanding and desperate in attempts to meet metrics.
