Pros

Working from home, is all i can think of

Cons

Management - with 3 managers in 4 years 2 of which were the worst I've come across in 30 years in banking. The best one I had is not the one Ieft under. Overtime, covering for buyers out, having to beg for a 2week vacation, just a few things. Micromanagement, having no work / family balance Was told when hired 1 Saturday a month - had to work 3 Saturdays a month to make my goals barely. Goals set by what Ally thought your dealers should generate never mind competition. Volume was our sole responsibility the outside Sales reps would constantly throw the buyers under the bus if they didn't get the call they wanted and managers would not back up your call. Volume was all that mattered to managers. Risk was not a factor it al comes down to making GOALS. EVERYONE got paid commissions but the buyers

Pros

You get a bi-weekly paycheck.

Cons

The culture has tanked under new leadership over the last couple of years. It’s cutthroat, senior management keeps swapping out experienced leaders for their own people, same values, same bottom line only mindset. No one actually knows what they’re doing because everyone’s expected to do everything and own the fallout when it doesn’t work. Decisions get micromanaged or made behind closed doors about your own team, with no input. There’s constant pressure to cut expenses, and the target seems to double every month, at this rate it feels like the end is inevitable. Layoffs happen a few times a year now, two years running, and leadership straight up tells you it’s the new norm, so get used to it. Everyone knows it, everyone talks about it, and everyone’s living in fear. On top of that, you’re expected to work 12 hour days and answer emails on weekends, then get told you’re still not doing enough. It’s demoralizing. This is an awful place to work, and with the job market this bad, people can’t leave even though everyone’s looking. Feels like a sinking ship, and they deserve it for how they treat people.
