Pros

Great people, however a lot have left, used to feel like a family and there used to be lots of opportunity. They give people good opportunities to learn and grow, move abroad etc. Not scared to make bold changes.

Cons

Decisions are made, you get part of the way to making it happen and then the landscape changes. No long term goal, just satisfying the shareholders from quarter to quarter. Significant change to regions, leadership, with short-term pressure.

Pros

Western Union was a great place to grow if you are motivated. The company wants to do well and generally efforts are well focused.

Cons

Lots of turnover that hurts a company that does write it's how to do things down. Challenging market that takes market share consistently.
