Pros

The benefits are excellent, the training is good and many of the people working there are good people.

Cons

The atmosphere at work is almost cult-like. The expectation is to embrace the "Capital Way"- or else. And the or else can be brutal. The next round of changes are going to lower the quality of about everything at American Funds. The move towards OMS (whatever that means), is just a move to a call center mentality. Team managers and senior managers are realizing that managing people who have no chance for growth at the company is going to be difficult. It has a Titanic feel now; not enough lifeboats and the band is starting to fade.
