Pros

Flex time was great as you were able to come in early and leave earlier or come in later and stay later. The co-workers are very nice, good 401k, benefits, good location and covered parking. If you are able to work with cumbersome systems and adapt to constant change you will fare well here.

Cons

Be prepared to hit the ground running or get buried. The training is trial by fire and you will work very hard and long hours. High turn over. Management is detached from the department and what really needs to get completed. There are tons of "projects" that are more of a waste of time than to improve the department. Each new system is a band-aid for a prior system failure. Little or no room for growth or promotions in this department. They really need to hire more people so that employees are not worked to death.

Pros

Responsible Time (which is truly encouraged to be used and is one of the only things keeping people above water at the moment); great coworkers

Cons

Company is growing too big, too fast and employees simply cannot keep up and are burning out. Too many changes at once and employees feel senior leadership does not notice or they simply don’t care. Associates who have been with Empower since the beginning are saying this is not the same Empower they once loved working for.
