Provides a lot of employee “benefits” that are what I believe to be actually nonexistent. Employee EAP, donated PTO, anything with Voya- lawyer benefits.
HR is worthless, they don’t send important documents, follow through with requests, or have 50% of the knowledge they should have about the department. You can birth a child and find yourself harassing them for change of life documents… that they literally just email.
They keep employees waiting weeks for death benefit payments, promise things like funeral flowers and then send nothing, short your pay a week and then allow you to fill out a request for and off cycle pay just for them to refuse it anyway. Allow you to transfer departments just to lay off your new department.
They pay men more for positions of the same grade, in instances where the woman has more experience and is at a busier location.
Allow management to hire on personal interest instead of professional accomplishments.
Pay is substandard for the area and expectations. Raises are pennys on the dollar every couple of years. Colleagues who have been employed here for ten years make the same as employees who have just been hired and have no experience in a relevant field. You will qualify for government assistance if you have one child or more.
Insurance costs are insane. 50% of my income goes to taxes and insurance premiums. $366 just for medical every two weeks with a $6000 out of pocket? Prepare for medical collections.
And last but not least if you would like your paycheck direct deposited you have to open an account with Associated that means they can see every aspect of your life down to the late night McDonald’s trips. They also don’t share this information until after you’ve been hired on. Way to make an extra buck force your employees to bank with you to retain household deposits to inflate your numbers to the government for loans. I mean you could get a paper check in the mail every 3 weeks too, up to you I guess.
