Pros
Spent nearly 10 years at Vanguard. The first were pretty amazing, and in the last 5 I've seen a lot of changes that have been not so great. -Most people really do believe in doing what's right by the investor -General focus on creating a collaborative culture -Options to rotate around the organization -Mid year bonus for most crew
Cons
The nearer you get to the top, the uglier things become. It's disheartening to see the way some of the senior most leaders talk about lower ranks. There's a giant disconnect between the executive team(s) and the rank and file employees. -Long memories. If you make a bad impression at any time, some people won't forget it and they will block you -Some leaders are more interested in the pedigree than the experience someone brings -Organization seems to be at a pivot point, and some of the senior leader are ignoring how disengaged some of their employees are. -Compensation is disappointing. You can make more money at another company.
