Pros

Most of the employees get something extra for working for a company that helps hard working migrants send money around the world to where it has a huge impact. Generally positive people with some talent.

Cons

Statements on strategy and cost cutting launched without a plan. How to get there is not of interest to senior mgmt and as such, unsurprisingly, ability to deliver is low but the rest of the employees are punished / suffer when targets not met. Then the Board gives themselves new retention bonuses to celebrate a falling share price - bonkers!

Pros

Fast-paced transformation, you get a lot of responsibility Very little bureaucracy, able to make rapid changes to improve the company Renewed focus on retail and real differentiators - not chasing shiny objects Lots of new talent has leveled up every single function for the better Great people & culture, collaborative Remote

Cons

So much happening it is hard to stay on top of it all if you aren't regularly talking to other functions A bit isolating - no opportunity to meet people in person

Pros

Remote work, good amount of pto and holidays off.

Cons

Horrible leaders that pretend to listen. They don’t involve the rest of the team and don’t hold any team meetings like all hands before Madison Dearborn took over. Upper management feels extremely fake and don’t care.
