Pros

There were countless pros when this was Jack Bogle's Vanguard

Cons

A very unethical company to work for now. Never, ever trust HR. Ever. Don't trust managers either - they are all corrupt and only hand select their favorites. Adding value to the company gets you NOWHERE. And stop with the BS reviews written by HR - noone is believing them and it is overstating the overall rating.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
