Pros

Overall the company has decent health benefits and a robust wellness program. Some people are great to work with. Carrier lunches and seasonal parties are a nice bonus. There's not much more good I can say

Cons

Where do I begin. First and foremost, I have been here several months now and have yet to be trained very much in my role. We have a team structure, yet no one on my team has made the effort to make sure I am trained in depth in my duties. Aside from that, as I mentioned in the title, it is much like high school here. If you like dealing with drama bullying and cut throat people going behind each other's backs, then this is the place for you. People are more worried about cliques and office politics than actually doing their jobs. While the office is mostly women, it is very obvious that the men are much more valued here. The workload in grossly unevenly distributed. And the biggest kicker is that the salaries are way below industry standard. And don't even think about getting a cost of living increase or even a deserved raised. It's worse than pulling teeth from what's being gossiped around the office. Unless you're in good with the office manager or the branch president, forget being valued as an employee. Those that are, get special treatment that's very apparent to all.

Pros

Salary was in market range.

Cons

Manager took zero interest in me. I spoke to her 2 times in the 6 months I was there. It’s just an endless grind to various SEC and investor required reporting. By the time you finish you need to start over. Almost all process are broken. This $13B company runs on excel. It’s a real risk that this company collapses on itself. They purchase companies and destroy everything good about their cultures. I was so happy and content until they purchased us. The executives paint a fake picture of their culture to the street.
