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.

Pros

Really solid company. Good high level leadership and the best culture ive seen. Runs like a start up so lots of opportunity for impact. Growth is everywhere and theyre supportive of continuing ed. Culture varies by LOB. I work in Paze and cannot speak to Zelle or Certos.

Cons

This is silly but I cannot stand the work laptops. Small little windows machines.

Pros

Friendly coworkers, interesting problem space if you like finance and big data. In-office requirements but many show up after 10 or leave before 3.

Cons

Around the time of my exit, two people in leadership were fired. In my professional career I've never witnessed a firing that felt more like a humiliation ritual. They were paraded around the office and through all-hands meetings to aid transition (presumably for a new VP installing their replacement of choice), with my direct leads acting incredibly two-faced. Wishing condolences to the faces of the newly departed, but celebrating behind closed doors. Really gross. This behavior would at least make sense if it were in service of a good technical vision, but in my ten years of experience I have truly never seen worse development standards. Rampant ego and inertia. Getting engineers to even use Git is like pulling teeth. Want to install Python 3.10.x instead of Python 3.11.x? Have fun waiting 2 months for approval. And the communication from the executive level is nausea-inducing. Rarely we hear anything that strikes at the core of these issues. Rather it is vapid platitude after platitude. And insistence on the adoption of core values that feel like a Temu version of Amazon LPs.
