Pros

One of the best parts of working here was that it was extremely flexible, which is needed in a second job or when you are in school.

Cons

The culture was nonexistent, and employees were not valued enough. Employee turnover was extremely high.

The SSA Group Response

Sorry to hear that your experience with SSA was less then stellar. We especially pride ourselves on creating a great work environment with an awesome culture. Our culture department will continue to look into ways that we can improve employee engagement.
