Pros

The amount of time off you were given to work with as a new employee was amazing.

Cons

Where do I begin??? As stated above, the amount of time off you were given off was just crazy, the catch though was, if you took it, you couldnt collect and couldnt bonus. The leadership there was like a little club. If your in the club, you could do whatever you wanted, if not ?? Look out. Management was not very helpful either. I had a situation where I needed a manager. The only one I found advised me that they were at lunch and couldnt assist me. In over 30 years in the business (25 as a manager) I've NEVER heard a response like that. There is a strict cell phone policy, which I understand and agree with, however dont deliver that message to your group as your cell phone is going off with text after text and excusing yourself from the reprimand to answer those texts. Also, the leadership at OneMain seems to think the workplace is some sort of dating service and will show you pictures of your female peers in compromising positions. This isnt a call center, it's a joke. As they take advantage of their customers that have little to no income, find themselves in desperate situations, and have no business taking a loan with 40% interest, they also do that with the people they hire. Desperate out of job people who are under qualified. They know like they do with their customers, they can write off their employees as well. Sad but true

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.
