Pros

A lot of supportive coworkers and great projects.

Cons

The CEO is delusional. We were sent a communication today acknowledging crippling gas prices and inflation as well as COVID spread. He continued to lie and say how great we scored on employee engagement as a leading employer knowing so many employees are miserable with being crammed into an office instead of being allowed the decision of their work location. We were told even if economic conditions deteriorate, we are still expected to work in office. Ally does not care about your health, your lost personal time in forced long commutes, or that you are having to spend $800 a month in gas to get to the office when our jobs were done more effectively remotely for the past 2 years. They are sweeping all the glaring issues out of their face and under the rug.

Pros

Great culture, good compensation and benefits. Excellent management team, very supportive and interactive with the team.

Cons

Onboarding was a challenge due to IT’s lack of clear direction. The loan origination system crashes a lot.

Pros

Hybrid schedule is reasonable, with only three days a week required in office. Benefits are decent and we have a fairly new office building is a nice.

Cons

Don’t be fooled by Glassdoor’s rating. It likely reflects the old Ally, not the company it is today. Ally used to be a great place to work, with strong culture, meaningful work, and real innovation. They used to pride themselves on culture, and now it’s the worst I’ve seen it. There have been significant leadership changes, with many of the leaders who made Ally great shown the door. Round after round of layoffs has everyone whispering about who’s next, and the people who remain here are stuck cycling through failed re-orgs meant to “fix” the department. It’s gotten bad enough that I know people actively hoping to get cut just to walk away with severance. If it doesn’t get better soon, I might be hoping to be let go myself. I can’t recommend it the way I once would have.
