Pros

Great people, good benefits and a bonus in the summer

Cons

Vanguard is behind in technology and it can cause problems throughout the day. They gave become bureaucratic and have too many managers. Management isn’t transparent about changes until they’ve already been implemented. Pressure to constantly hit metrics.

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”.
