Pros

Top level management is competent. Financial backing of USB is nice. Technology is good. People generally get along - the people really are the best part of Elavon. Pay/benefits are generally in line with the industry but growth incentives/options/profit sharing down to the lower level folks would be nice (it used to be this way...).

Cons

Beaurocracy! We've gotten TOO big and TOO "Bank" in some ways - gone are the days of nimble action, forward thinking, and a "we can do it" attitude - now it's SLOW to get ANYTHING done - eighteen levels of sign off, approvals, prioritization, escalation - nothing gets BUILT or FIXED without the beaurocracy - it's insane!

Pros

Strong environment for professional development and career growth. The organization provides ample opportunities to climb the ladder if you are proactive. I also believe the recent shift in leadership direction is a promising move toward the right future for the company.

Cons

The organization struggles with significant corporate bureaucracy and a siloed working environment, which leads to redundant projects and inefficient capital allocation. While the company pushes a 'total compensation' narrative, the liquid cash compensation and benefits packages—particularly health insurance flexibility—do not currently align with market standards. The lack of a cohesive product strategy remains a primary friction point for leadership.
