      Call Center Environment

      Financial services representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company overall is great to work for. Great benefits including vacation. Norfolk Shipyards was the absolute best place to work.

      Cons

      Shared Services location in Charlotte was not great. It was a call center environment, if you're into that kind of thing. In order to move departments, you basically need to know someone to let you in. Did not like the environment.

      Horrible Leadership mixed with lack of direction.

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Most if the people are great. Steady work for the most part.

      Cons

      No movement up within the company. Leadership always changing, not in touch with employees. Workload is overwhelming, most working 6 days a week due to being so far behind on current projects. Benefits are not that great, they seem to find the most expensive plans. Pay is low, personally was 20% below area average. They have had a lot of good, 20+ year, employees leaving due to how its currently being ran. They, me included, found greener grass, more pay, better benefits, better hours, and less stress by moving on from this place.
