Pros

Decnt PTO/vacation/sick time/volunteer time Bonuses when meeting goals were pretty good. Great learning experience.

Cons

Workload became unbearable when someone was out of the office - they started changing how bonuses were calculated / paid out/ restructured- ended up having two months with no bonus when I should have had they not changed it. (Which at the time enough people complained that they brought back the way it was) Started to pay bonuses with regular check thus causing substantial taxes to be taken out. Would be asked to work overtime and then was told I should have taken a longer lunch to make up for the hours(keep it as close to 40hours as possible) (no I'm not taking a 2.5 hour lunch to stay later in the day- you're kidding me..I get here at 8:30 am (sometimes 9) either let me come in later or give me part of a day off and leave early (not to sound like a brat but you got me working late (past business hours and on Saturdays the last thing I wanna do it beep bop around town for a "long lunch" just to stay later than 5:30- ..) work-life balance was awfu.genuinely felt good and bad at the same time because I was helping people that needed it

Pros

Your peers. I have a great group of co-workers though multiple have left because of HORRIBLE direct management in the AM department.

Cons

Low hourly pay. Tricky incentives. Shark like environment. Terrible and I mean TERRIBLE managers. Favoritism runs rampant at this place and goes unchecked. Lazy, incompetent department manager makes up his own rules (you MUST use your break time to go the bathroom) which goes endorsed by his superiors and HR. Reward people who live at that place and work insane OT hours because of the low pay, but crap on people working the normal amount of hours because you’re based on the “average”. Truly one of the worst management staffs I have ever seen coupled with lackadaisical training and one of the dumbest rules I’ve ever heard of…you must be at One Main for ONE ENTIRE YEAR before you can transfer out of the department or move up. Trust me when I say run as far away as you can from this place.
