Pros

Vanguard had a lot of benefits and now that I am in another company the benefits were not that bad (except for salary and health). Other companies have only 2 weeks of vacation and charge even more for health benefits. There are a lot of opportunities to grow professionally through Vanguard, by taking Vanguard coursework or even get involved.

Cons

the vanguard culture is that everyone is "nice' to each other, however there are times when employees are not respected and earn what they deserve.

Pros

The benefits are great, the campus is beautiful. It's a pretigious company so it will look good on the resume.

Cons

Vanguard uses an antiquated DOS computer system (if you can believe that) for the management of client accounts which creates all kinds of complexities and problems for staff including errors. The salaries are very low - especially considering the work involved. The workload is crushing and most of the people that I work with have to work through their lunches just to keep from falling behind. Overtime is discouraged, yet staff are expected to keep up with production quotas that are excessive (hence people having to work through their lunches).
