Pros

Clients were great most of the time. WaFed doesn’t believe in quota’s which takes a lot of stress off of employees.

Cons

Whatever you save in stress not having quotas is added on in the form of financial stress. WaFed pays employees very low hourly rates.

Pros

Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.

Cons

Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
