Pros

Vanguard had a lot of benefits and now that I am in another company the benefits were not that bad (except for salary and health). Other companies have only 2 weeks of vacation and charge even more for health benefits. There are a lot of opportunities to grow professionally through Vanguard, by taking Vanguard coursework or even get involved.

Cons

the vanguard culture is that everyone is "nice' to each other, however there are times when employees are not respected and earn what they deserve.

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”.
