Pros

Orange County is a great place to live Some really great talent in certain parts of the businesses If you work here, work in Decision Analytics or Credit Services ONLY The new North America CEO is great

Cons

Terribly underpaid, unless in the top 3 layers of management Wait a couple of years as change should be a good thing for this company - too many people have stayed too long because they know politics rather than having an expertise Competition is going to wipe away at least 1-2 of the 4 businesses in the foreseeable future Regional leadership constantly complains about Obamacare Regional-Global/Matrixed structure makes it impossible to do what's right for the business (regional businesses hate the globalization efforts because they don't want to lose their jobs, so you can't support global without getting your head cut off) Too many people have been there too long that they fight for their alliances rather than for the business, which is a big reason why they aren't doing so well - increasing competition is the biggest reason

Pros

The fact they had Remote work

Cons

In my experience, management lacked consistency, transparency, and empathy when addressing employee concerns. After dedicating nearly 16 years to the company, I felt my years of service and commitment were not meaningfully considered when employment decisions were made. I received my first disciplinary action in February 2026 related to FMLA reporting requirements. From my perspective, I was placed on a final corrective action without prior coaching or progressive discipline, which I found surprising after many years with the company. A few months later, I was terminated following a security-related incident while working remotely. I felt I was not given a meaningful opportunity to explain the circumstances before the decision was made, leaving me with the impression that the outcome had already been determined. I also experienced frustration when seeking guidance from Human Resources regarding bereavement policies. I did not feel my concerns were fully addressed or that I received clear explanations to help me understand the company’s position. Overall, I left feeling unsupported and believing that HR’s primary role was to protect the organization’s interests rather than advocate for employees. While every workplace must uphold policies and compliance standards, I believe there should also be room for fairness, open communication, and consideration of an employee’s long-standing dedication and overall performance. My experience left me feeling undervalued and, ultimately, discarded after nearly 16 years of loyal service.
