Pros

Literally nothing is worth it. Every year spent here was a year spent in misery. This job made me want to commit suicide regularly- I wish I was exaggerating

Cons

District managers and supervisors lie and falsify employee records to ensure raises are near impossible and instill fear. Micro managing is the only way people “lead” here. One example: You look at your phone after hours OFF THE CLOCK for 30 seconds to check an emergency text from a loved one? Expect to get a zoomed in photo of it and a write up. Cherry on top? managers are on their phone constantly they just hide in blind spots. Inequitable treatment and enforcement of expectations. They will hire new , inexperienced people in at a higher wage than tenured employees and then write you up if you ask for a raise. Call HR to report an ethics concern? YOU WILL BE RETALIATED AGAINST EVEN IF YOU ARE ANONYMOUS THEY FIND OUT Now that the sanctions from years ago are lifted they are back to the unethical sales practices- employees are encouraged to sign customers up for things they don’t want or consent to- and are incentivized to open fraudulent accounts just to boost the growth numbers !!!! They try to illegally infringe on FMLA protected time and engage in scare tactics to make you fearful of job loss They lay off people who have worked here for DECADES with no notice or assistance: you are just a number here If you do get FMLA, just know managers will discuss protected health information to other employees as a form of gossip. The buildings have been falling apart for YEARS meanwhile the CEO gets a fat bonus every year They love to give write ups (called a check in) but not inform you…. The only notification gets sent to “spam” so you never realize you did something wrong in the first place Come to management with a concern or question? lol they will find a reason to write you up… Morale is horrible, the fees are always going up, grandfathered accounts aren’t honored, and the front line employees are abused by managers 100% Even managers talk about wanting to quit daily due to deplorable work conditions

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
