Pros
My interview for this company was the best one I’ve had in a while. If you’re like me when you interview, you’re very nervous especially interviewing with two managers at one time. Surprisingly, it had an ease to it. I felt very comfortable with both managers. They were very friendly, open and made me feel very comfortable. That speaks volumes because in this industry people tend to have an arrogance about them and they can tend to be very stand-offish. My start date for S3 was December 2. From the start the IT dept and the Operations/Processing dept (my department) had done everything need to get me started. I’ve been in the financial services industry for over 17 years and coming into this company I felt like I belonged. I will say that they have hands down the best employee training/orientation class I’ve ever been involved with. The trainers Caleb and Erin were awesome! When you leave the class you know exactly the company you work for, their purpose, their goals, history, their plans, and last your role as an employee. You also get additional on the job training after! So many companies hire you then throw you in the job function without proper training then expect you to hit numbers and meet goals etc. not S3. Also, all of management is approachable. I literally watched the CEO have a 10-minute conversation with an employee. I will say they have a strict dress code. So be very self-aware. If you have to question it then don’t wear it because you will get sent home. Although S3 is a young company they have progressed more than many companies much older. At S3 there is also room for growth and advancement. It’s totally up to you. I’m very impressed with my employer and very happy I chose this offer rather than the other I had on the table.
Cons
None at all.....everyone can always do better than what they are doing now it's called growth 😊😉
