Pros

*High turnover leads to opportunities to climb up the ladder, especially if you like to brown nose. *Some of mid management are great people who care and try their best

Cons

*If you're not in sales the pay equates to something you'd get out of high school, except they want you to have experience. *Owner likes to complain about paying employees and how much California wages are (which explais why they're opening up branches in other states). *They require you to write these glassdoor reviews hence why i'm rewriting mine post employment. *Don't expect to be paid any kind of competitive or fair wages. Expect to be lowballed at the last moment. Lots of "carrot on a stick" empty promises and management practices.

Pros

Supportive team members, structured training, and opportunities to develop administrative and payment processing skills. Clear expectations and a professional work environment helped me stay organized and productive.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and performance expectations may feel demanding. Some processes change frequently, which can require employees to adapt quickly.

Pros

Flexible for the most part (for now) Happy that there are less agents. i just hope they don't over hire once or if it gets busier. Hope there are improvements and environment gets better like the old Optima days.

Cons

-Not much culture left. -Taken away bonuses. keeps getting worse and more strict rules and changes. -Wish they would have a rule where employees who drive far have more opportunity to work from home again. I personally do better and wouldn't have to waste so much time on the road in traffic. i can spend more time with family and I could be working more if anything.... As long as the money is still decent during slow times and I'm not going into my savings. Then we're good. I hope it gets busy again and they don't over hire once it does.... -Servicing/back-end needs to do better work. Us sales agent's and company lose A LOT of money due to this. Has been giving our company a bad name/brand. We are not the only company out there anymore. there's a lot of competition. Hopefully they listen to their employees since we also deal with the back lash from the back end complaints. Not cool for our clients to spend a lot of money and be ignored afterwards.
