Pros

Free coffee, TVs around the building, in building restaurant.

Cons

Supervisors, management, hours that constantly change, reactionary company instead of a proactive company. No room for growth unless you are in a clique with certain people.

Pros

Relaxed atmosphere and diverse work culture centrally located and easy to find Metro Detroit location.

Cons

High turn over due to poor management leadership which causes qualified employees to fall prey to their incompetence. Lack of leadership professional etiquette, proper experience and knowledge to be in leadership positions of such a small workforce.

Pros

Office is nice and modern, although overcrowding is becoming a big problem. Also, this might have been a big perk 5 years ago, but nowadays many companies are going with a modern look and cube farms with 6 feet walls are a thing of the past.

Cons

Do your research and read the reviews online, not only on Glassdoor, but also reviews left by their customers, then ask yourself, is this a place you would want to work? Would you buy a toaster on Amazon that had 2.9 out of 5 stars?? (that is the current Glassdoor rating of North American Bancard at the time of this review). If you're looking into a leadership position here, ask to meet with the CEO before you take the job. And again, ask yourself, is this the kind of person you want to work for? In my opinion, the environment here is toxic. Most people turn to sarcasm just to stay sane. Water cooler talk is nothing but complaining and talking about looking for new jobs. There is no such thing as employee empowerment or ownership. There is only 1 person who is empowered and this is made very clear on a daily basis. It seems like most of the people that stay here have titles or salaries that they wouldn't be able to get anywhere else. If that's what motivates you in life as opposed to being respected and feeling like you have a say and can make a difference, then this might be the place for you.
