Pros

There were no pros - very toxic work environment.

Cons

I experienced frequent public criticism, micromanagement, exclusion from communication, and constantly shifting expectations. Training and performance guidance were inconsistent, and I was informed I would be required to relocate indefinitely to another location despite my offer specifying my original site. I also witnessed unprofessional conduct, including sexual conversations, jokes about illegal substance use in the company bathroom, shopping for firearms during company time, and disparaging remarks about customers’ financial status. Workplace policies appeared inconsistently enforced. The role was presented as supportive and growth-oriented, but my experience did not reflect that. Overall, this was a challenging environment, particularly for someone new to the industry.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
