Pros

Pay, work/home balance, telework capabilities, always busy, great benefits and friendly management from the top down.

Cons

The I.T. department is something to be desired. For the amount of talent in that department, the recurring issues shouldn't be happening. The serious workload dis-appropriation is always ignored, and the harder you work, the more work and less praise/respect you get. Certain departments have serious interpersonal problems that cause tension and make even the best employees not want to work, it's a known issue to middle management, but nothing gets addressed. When there is an issue with anything, other co workers, workflow, interpersonal issues or training, there is always a meeting but never anything that comes from them. The option for telework is there, but it's hard to obtain even though it's extremely beneficial for many employees.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We appreciate hearing your positive comments about our friendly work environment, great benefits, and continuous career development, as these are areas of increased focus to showcase our commitment to employee growth and well-being. We also appreciate your comments about meeting frequency, camera expectations, and our shift away from fully remote work. While we continue to offer flexible, hybrid, and remote work options to a majority of our employees at all office locations (as approved by a manager), we also recognize that face-to-face communication and connectiveness are important parts of our company values. These interactions help strengthen collaboration, support our teams, and ensure we’re providing the best experience for our customers. The privilege to work remotely is and will remain dependent on the needs of our customers balanced with the needs of our employees and internal teams. We would like the opportunity to hear more about your experience. If you are willing to share, please contact us directly at HRmail@wnins.com.

Pros

There are really great teams to work on and enjoyable coworkers. Independent decision making. Pay is slightly below average, but benefits are great. Profit share bonus. Good CEO. Departments very much encourage hiring within and lateral transitions to different areas of the company.

Cons

Your team members may be great, but a difficult manager dampens the day to day experience. Pay could be higher.
