Pros

The position is part of a unit which makes working as a team that much easier. Lots of decision making abilities if you like taking the lead. Working as part of a unit allows you to learn and understand everyone's job (i.e., Risk, Payroll, HR).

Cons

The company strives on increasing the amount of businesses they partner with. This tends to make it more difficult for each business unit to service their clients efficiently and accurately. You have to be able to keep up with the fast-pace the sales force moves at! It can be done; however, when too many processes are created and not everyone follows the same process (such as each business unit); it can cause chaos.

very high turnover

Pros

There are some nice people and free coffee.

Cons

A very disconnected culture... That's what happens when turnover is high. There are a couple of very psychopathic people that will go to great lengths to hold on to their jobs by lying about others. If you go there, count how many people have been there for 10 years. That'll be a clue...
