Pros

- Benefits - Remote options

Cons

I could say so much about the leadership in Talent Acquisition - toxic, micromanagers, untrustworthy, gossipy, unqualified to lead a team of that size. Favoritism is rampant and if they don't like you, they'll find a way to put a target on your back and get you fired or force you to quit. The volume of work is so high at times, but nothing gets done is a timely matter because of all the red tape and archaic chains of command and communication. There was so much potential for a strong, cohesive team with a foundation of trust. Unfortunately, the fish rots from the head down here and the turnover rate is proof of that.

Pros

There are still some great people here who truly care about their work, and the benefits are fairly competitive.

Cons

Leadership keeps changing direction, leaving teams confused and overworked. Support and resources have declined, and it’s probably the most toxic environment I’ve ever worked in. The culture has gone downhill in recent years, and there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors—don’t fall for it. Leadership seems more focused on trying to look like the next big bank and competing with the largest players than staying true to their roots and what once made the company special.

Pros

Fully remote work. Pay was good. Most coworkers were kind and helpful.

Cons

Our manager consistently beat up on the team during meetings telling us we were always behind on our goals. Processes were constantly changed without notice to other departments and the vendor managers were left to reset expectations and explain the new process.
