Pros

Ascensus is a great place to work if you are not afraid of hard work and it's important to you to believe in the services your employer provides to its clients. Ascensus cares about helping people save for retirement, helping employers offer robust retirement plans and helping our partners create a success product.

Cons

The retirement industry has many regulations defined by the DOL and IRS. This makes the business very complex and ongoing training is required. Add in the various partners that Ascensus supports and it makes for a challenging environment.

Pros

Excellent manager and team with streamlined processes. Benefits are greater than what I have seen in a majority of other businesses. The IT team generally moves very quick to resolve issues. HR/Hiring team was very quick and informative.

Cons

Only have two monitors when three would offer more efficiency. Although many tasks have SOPs and guides, some guides might not be updated (IE I found a guide that had the incorrect naming convention for a file). Any study materials needed to obtain relevant professional credentials are not covered by Ascensus. Obtaining relevant professional credentials also does not provide you with any bonus. You must wait a minimum of 12 months in your current position before wanting to change/pursue other job opportunities at Ascensus. The career ladder, at least in the Compliance team, seems rather narrow and limited.
