Pros

People are fake. Better than mean people. The logo looks good. Part of the rebranding to mask the company's real issues.

Cons

Benefits are lackluster and getting worse. Part of the budget cuts. Don't get sick unless you can afford it or have something better. The office culture is nonexistent. Eye contact is frowned upon. Don't ask questions. Promotions only happen if someone leaves and even that takes time. No upward track for career growth. Get in and get out. No training. Either you know it or you don't. No diversity. Don't plan on conversations beyond the weather. Bonuses are reserved for certain people, usually upper management. Poor business structure. Rushed projects are layered onto poorly planned projects. No work/life balance. Don't expect a 9-5 work week unless you plan on leaving early and having your coworkers hate you or talk behind your back.

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.
