Pros

Great People always willing to help you grow. Opportunities to learn and grow. High premium paid for ability to work well with others.

Cons

Often look hours and, at times, what seems to be arbitrary evaluations.

Pros

Sallie Mae has a beautiful campus

Cons

Operations Management knows who they are going to hire internally before they post positions Operations Management is quick to judge and use perception There is to much work and not enough people in Operations People are stuck in their roles for years before possibly moving up Operations Management plays favorites You work for a student loan company but your degrees and certifications are not acknowledged Operations Upper Management doesn't let leaders lead Management is afraid to make decisions on the fly, everything requires a meeting and takes days/weeks for a response. There computer systems are horrible. Everyday there's some type of computer issue that requires the help desk. Agents need to be logged into15 systems to complete one call. This has to change.

Pros

It was a job that did pay money.

Cons

Poor pay, long hours, mandatory overtime. Whether you're a borrower or an employee, they own you. Oh, and you get to suggestive sell things like insurance.
