Pros

A highly ethical and customer focused work environment Competitive salary, bonus and overall health and retirement benefits. Highest company percentage for ER contributions to RA, GSRA, HSA. Vesting complete after 3 years.

Cons

Systems and technology need to be streamlined into an organized, adaptive, and level platforms. Old computer platforms and new computer platforms do not mesh and cause a lot of added frustrations for employees. The internal processes create an assembly line environment which impedes productivity in operations.
