S3 Shared Service Solutions reviews

I am a person that hates being micromanaged and if you are like me, that won't be a worry here. As long as you do your job, and do it right you set your own pace and tone. I have been with S3 going on three years now and I love it! I work full time and I'm a full time parent. This is the first place I've worked, that when they say they want you to have a work/home balance they mean it. When they say they want you on a career path for growth, they mean it. The look internally for promotions first. Management is kind, understanding, patient and trustworthy. There is also opportunity to work from home, which helps with the commute and my work/life balance. My co-workers, or actually more like family. We actually all do get together after work and want to. S3 also has multiple events for us, all year long. Even nice surprises on random days just to thank us. I feel blessed to be here and plan to stay. And yes, this is a real review.

My interview for this company was the best one I’ve had in a while. If you’re like me when you interview, you’re very nervous especially interviewing with two managers at one time. Surprisingly, it had an ease to it. I felt very comfortable with both managers. They were very friendly, open and made me feel very comfortable. That speaks volumes because in this industry people tend to have an arrogance about them and they can tend to be very stand-offish. My start date for S3 was December 2. From the start the IT dept and the Operations/Processing dept (my department) had done everything need to get me started. I’ve been in the financial services industry for over 17 years and coming into this company I felt like I belonged. I will say that they have hands down the best employee training/orientation class I’ve ever been involved with. The trainers Caleb and Erin were awesome! When you leave the class you know exactly the company you work for, their purpose, their goals, history, their plans, and last your role as an employee. You also get additional on the job training after! So many companies hire you then throw you in the job function without proper training then expect you to hit numbers and meet goals etc. not S3. Also, all of management is approachable. I literally watched the CEO have a 10-minute conversation with an employee. I will say they have a strict dress code. So be very self-aware. If you have to question it then don’t wear it because you will get sent home. Although S3 is a young company they have progressed more than many companies much older. At S3 there is also room for growth and advancement. It’s totally up to you. I’m very impressed with my employer and very happy I chose this offer rather than the other I had on the table.
