Pros

Colleagues were great to work with. External Customers were great to work with. Good Life/work balance - depending on your boss.

Cons

Not the right people in the right position. Not innovative. Western Union PILLARS are just said not followed. Lots of "Word Spinning" If you "TALK THE LOUDEST" you are heard the most even when wrong.
