Pros

I was an excellent collector. If you can hit goal, you will make alot of money. On the federal side Student Assistance Corporation (SAC) when you hit goal you get $400.00

Cons

You have to spend alot of time there to hit goal. Management wants you to live there because by you hitting your goal they hit theres. They want you to work 55+ hours a week and make you feel bad when you dont.

Pros

Smart co-workers who are dedicated even when the environment has been tough. People are very creative in problem-solving and I really enjoy my co-workers. It's actually a really nice work environment. People who work at Sallie Mae are dedicated and want to succeed. With the right direction from senior management, there is a good chance for long-term growth and stability.

Cons

Lots of cuts in the last 2 years. Budget and people have been slashed to the point where the organization is very lean. It is hard when you don't know when the next cut is coming and what it will mean.
