Pros

Many internal opportunities. Monthly feedback. Supportive management. Great benefits. If you work hard and hold yourself to a high standard, it will be noticed. Call center does contests and sometimes provides lunch. Strong culture. Lots of paid time off.

Cons

While the initial salary is fair and benefits are good, the structure for raises/bonuses is very strict. Company is merging/going through a lot of growth/change right now, so scheduling and dealing with all of that can be irritating

Pros

Empower fully supports work life balance. They also support and encourage community service. I like the fact that they match not only by monetary contributions, they also match actual volunteer hours with money. Management at all levels is committed and invested in you professionally and personally.

Cons

None that I have found.

Pros

Many smart people genuinely want to grow & succeed; An excellent long term strategic vision backed by long term oriented investors; Ample growth opportunities at a business that is very well positioned for long term growth. Leaders that genuinely care about their people. Remote work is truly an advantage - just the lack of a commute makes a large difference. Opportunity to be at the ground level of a company that will develop a much stronger national brand over the next decade.

Cons

Delivery & Execution are areas that are truly challenging in the high growth/evolutionary environment that Empower is in today. Cultural changes are happening within the business that create some competing priorities, though Sr. Leaders continue to lead through this. Working with people across the US means don't expect a normal schedule - early / late starts and working lunches are the norm.
