Great people, unstable company, low pay

Pros

Company used to have a great culture years ago but much has changed since becoming Transamerica. It was good work experience but not somewhere I'd stay long-term. The people are great!

Cons

Pay is not competitive at all. I took another position making about 30% more. They've already lost a lot of good people. Upper management is uninvolved. Lots of talk of innovation but nothing has come of it.

Pros

Great and dedicated people. Everyone is friendly and eager to work with and help. Very dedicated to the mission helping families have financial security. They need a lot of eager and out of the box talent to help shape the future.

Cons

Large organization. Too much bureaucracy and not enough execution. Causes paralysis and very silo type of organization. Talk a lot about innovation, but doesn't seem like the leadership practices.
