      Pros

      Lovely offices in Denver, CO

      Cons

      Hands down the worst organization I have ever worked for. Senior leadership is clueless. They eliminate associates who get things done and keep associates (even in higher roles (director and above) who don't actually work (just good talkers). They 'protect' certain associates who should be let go. The business unit I worked in was the most toxic, drama-filled team and the SVP who leads that unit is the instigator. If you want to work for an organization that isn't interested in doing things better, think differently to make progress, be held accountable and take responsibility for what you do - this is certainly the place for you.

      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.
