Pros

I like that they listen to what employees have to say about anything. They are very caring and understanding most of the time unless there is a deadline coming up. They want to help us out but sometimes it doesn’t work out.

Cons

Work life balance is not good when there is a deadline coming up. They use old technologies so they do monthly releases which is not very agile. And if a deadline comes up, we would need to get it done or else we would make our clients unhappy by making them wait another month. Experienced lots of burnout during these times. Also there’s not much fun working here since most people keep to themselves and not really talk much about ourselves other than work related stuff. It would be hard to have friends here.

Pros

Excellent manager and team with streamlined processes. Benefits are greater than what I have seen in a majority of other businesses. The IT team generally moves very quick to resolve issues. HR/Hiring team was very quick and informative.

Cons

Only have two monitors when three would offer more efficiency. Although many tasks have SOPs and guides, some guides might not be updated (IE I found a guide that had the incorrect naming convention for a file). Any study materials needed to obtain relevant professional credentials are not covered by Ascensus. Obtaining relevant professional credentials also does not provide you with any bonus. You must wait a minimum of 12 months in your current position before wanting to change/pursue other job opportunities at Ascensus. The career ladder, at least in the Compliance team, seems rather narrow and limited.
