Pros

At vanguard you will be working with very nice, approachable people. The access to Vanguard University and their learning and development programs are great ways to develop professionally.

Cons

Very conservative. Need to wear a suit and tie four days a week despite lack of face-to-face communication with clients.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
