Pros

-Paid Holidays -Bi-Weekly Pay -Rooftop to enjoy lunches, cafeteria lunch options

Cons

-condoning & negative attitude towards remittance processors, data entry clerks and scanning dept. by management -exclusive and isolating employee atmosphere -poor to zero execution & education of “EDGE” concepts -pay isn’t competitive -poor communication and when there was it was very disorganized & inconsistent -time off in this department is based on what your fellow coworkers in that inner unit have requested off (typically no more than 1-2 employees could be off the same requested day) -promotion string a longs (ex: inquiring why YOU haven’t applied for an inner dept promo, so you apply and interview and they offer the position to someone who is a step below you) -Overall didn’t appreciate or treat employees correctly (ex: lots of talking behind backs and inappropriate comments made by supervisor and dept manager) -schedule changed weekly and wasn’t told until my first day of work Ex: Week 1 6:30-3, Week 2 7-3:30, Week 3&4 7:30-4 (this week never guaranteed to leave on time) We’d have a rotation set up in advance but it was always subject to change which made it difficult for planning any sort of medical or after work appointments

Pros

-Good work/life balance, -That's the only Pro

Cons

-Talent and competency is poorly assessed. There are a lot of people where you will wonder how they got into their position. -Company calls itself conservative but that looks more of a cover to explain poor growth/performance. -Culture is bizarre, with 'Edge' concepts commonly teetering between cult-like and overstepping boundaries -Management at all levels will make decisions based on their own preconceived notion. No amount of conflicting data has convinced a manager their thesis is wrong.
