Pros

The only benefit of working at this place is to gain some knowledge of personal financial responsibility

Cons

Too many...too much pressure to "sell loans", the whole company is terribly unethical in their lending practices, collecting from people (calling and actually going to their house) is awful. Very little room for advancement in company. There is no way to become a branch manager unless one quits or is fired. Incredibly unethical hiring practices. They will lie to you right out in order to get you "on board". I was told I'd be making more than the the 32k I started with . In addition, when I quit, I was told I'd be paid for vacation days I didn't take...never happened. This place will suck your soul.

Pros

Your peers. I have a great group of co-workers though multiple have left because of HORRIBLE direct management in the AM department.

Cons

Low hourly pay. Tricky incentives. Shark like environment. Terrible and I mean TERRIBLE managers. Favoritism runs rampant at this place and goes unchecked. Lazy, incompetent department manager makes up his own rules (you MUST use your break time to go the bathroom) which goes endorsed by his superiors and HR. Reward people who live at that place and work insane OT hours because of the low pay, but crap on people working the normal amount of hours because you’re based on the “average”. Truly one of the worst management staffs I have ever seen coupled with lackadaisical training and one of the dumbest rules I’ve ever heard of…you must be at One Main for ONE ENTIRE YEAR before you can transfer out of the department or move up. Trust me when I say run as far away as you can from this place.
