Pros

Good work life balance. Great people to work with. While not that innovative, it has solid knowledge of its field, and can produce new products. Good offices in nice buildings with great commuting connections. Good modern benefits. Not an employer who forces or condones too much overtime.

Cons

Too much process. Too much management, too many layers. Could produce many better projects with better leadership in place. Sometimes the company doesn't understand the import of its decisions, and it should listen to the ground level more.

Pros

At Western Union you work with people from different cultures and backgrounds. Life is never boring as you are always learning something new.

Cons

Work life balance can be challenging. Someone somewhere is always working and depending on your role, your days can be very long, as you are expected to be available.
