Pros

The benefits at Vanguard are amazing including a 14% 401k company contribution and excellent healthcare. The company is also growing fast with many opportunities for advancement.

Cons

It is hard to think of downsides of working at Vanguard. They only have a couple of locations so unless you live in Arizona or Pennsylvania there are few outside positions available.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
