Pros

When I first started, this was a great place to work. Our leader was visionary and highly supported our efforts. We were encouraged to innovate and think outside the box. We had flexibility to find real solutions. Things went off the rails when he left.

Cons

Vanguard has lost sight of the competitive advantage that agile provides. They are going backwards to traditional waterfall. To make matters worse, psychological safety is non-existent. Morale has taken a major blow. Coaching group leadership lacks vision and strategy.

Pros

Mission oriented culture High degree of collaboration Client centric mentality Strong coaching to people managers. I learned my best habits from the care and time coaching of leadership skills. Great hidden benefits (401k, partnership, health subsidies)

Cons

Managers matter. Networking matters. Myopia can set in for those that only get an inside-out view. Slow to decision making.
