Pros

Very exciting times at Western Union with the pending acquisition of Intermex and a lot of the announcements around wallets and digital assets

Cons

The international offices seem to do a good job around cultural and office events while the US seems to lack this in some areas.

Understand that traditional remittances are dying

Not enough resources available to drive transformation. Legacy tech. Outdated systems, processes. Too much work expected per employee.
