Pros

None to report. All of the amenities that they highlight are just part of the grand façade. It's just a wall of smoke used to mask the stench of poor employers.

Cons

Ticking time bomb! This company's management cares nothing about its employees. One minute you're safe from being terminated, the next minute you're being escorted out the doors with a box they've conveniently packed full of your things. It doesn't matter how many years of service you provided, you are disposable, regardless. It doesn't matter how many accounts you've opened, investments you've made happen at the last minute, or fees you've collected. You are disposable… Regardless. Your personal issues are not private. Your personnel file is not privileged information, rather, it is shared among those who are considered to be elite. It's not just about building you up to bring you down, it's the entertainment of your fall that they thrive on. In this atmosphere, it really isn't what you know, it's who you know. They report false information and force you to sign their write ups, and may really convince you that you've done something wrong...and they criticize you, and make you question your own competencies… Competencies that they once applauded you for having. When they're done with you, they're done with you. Don't look for a career here, don't even look for a stepping stone, they only like to see you fail.

Pros

The paid time off is good

Cons

Works employees to death - tons of mandatory overtime required Management does not support employees Yearly bonuses were taken away for monthly bonuses just so the company doesn’t have to pay out bonuses. You cannot make a single mistake because they don’t believe in the fact that humans make mistakes. You will get written up and put on a PIP. No chance to move up in the company, they already have the people that they want and they will pick and choose who to put in what positions. STAY AWAY!
