      Pros

      I have had the chance to meet and work with some great people. They give you 3 weeks of PTO for the year to start off with, which is pretty good.

      Cons

      High pressure, make a sale at any cost type of environment. I have felt as though you cannot trust those in management positions. This job has put me in uncomfortable positions on numerous occassions. Having attended college and having student loans to pay, I believe the pay for the job is pretty low for the amount of work that they expect to be done on a daily basis.

      Strong at the low & mid levels, but sr mgmt and overall corporate model (viva Espana!) sink the ship.

      Pros

      Generally good people working there after many of the spaniards, brazilians, etc. that came in with Sovereign acquisition have left. Compensation is strong to retain employees

      Cons

      The model of having all things run through Spain is nuts. And the IT model of sub companies based in Spain, paid as contractors in the US is not one that works for advanced markets. When business requirements are translated, literally, theres a lot lost in translation. My opinion is its intentional to allow centralized IT in Spain continue to dictate the direction of the company based on cost savings from shared technology. Fine with emerging markets...but US is a different game.
