Pros

People - teams and departments generally work well together. IT transformation work - CIO who knows what he's doing. Incoming CFO is long term employee with a true passion for people and has made headwinds in many departments she's served. current CEO is well respected and well established, however has years of mess to clean up Opportunity to learn new things Advancement for those who are willing to put in the work, or if they decide you need a better title and more money in order to keep you. embrace innovation yet many still lack the ability to drive true change

Cons

Executive leadership turnover - non stop churn in the C-Suite, including CEO but most notably 5 CHRO's in 5 years if that doesn't tell you how the organization really feels about the people that make the company. As a result of this constant turnover the strategic direction was always either non-existent, changed direction every 6-12 months, or wasn't well communicated. No one is sure whether to keep some of the divisions including tax and consumer credit and how to make them a profitable and strategic arm of the business. typical corporate nuances and politics management and leadership support lacks, so it's really 50/50 whether or not you'll have a good leader

Pros

Good culture, slow paced, no pressure, stable and job security

Cons

Not much challenge, opportunity for advancement and learning, pay is on the low end. Most of the employees live in 2nd tier cities on the east coast that are less expensive. If you live in a tier 1 city, the pay is way below industry average.
