Pros

I worked under different people and learned so much. It allowed me to improve my resume and get a more suitable and rewarding job.

Cons

Company outsourced many departments, and laid off so many good employees in the process. Outdated software, glitch in programs often. Working crazy hours and no balance between life and work. Cutthroat culture, very toxic environment to work in. People stabbing in the back.

Pros

Very exciting times at Western Union with the pending acquisition of Intermex and a lot of the announcements around wallets and digital assets

Cons

The international offices seem to do a good job around cultural and office events while the US seems to lack this in some areas.

Understand that traditional remittances are dying

Cons

Not enough resources available to drive transformation. Legacy tech. Outdated systems, processes. Too much work expected per employee.
