Business Outlook

Pros

Life work balanced is great

Cons

since we are working as contractors for another bank, there are salary caps for each levels, you could not get raise if you are staying on the same level.

Softworld Response

Thank you for your feedback. While we're happy to see you are enjoying a great work/life balance, we are extremely sorry to see that you aren't happy with other aspects of your experience. While we do try to acknowledge great performance, we also have to maintain pay equity so raises aren’t always possible. If you'd like to discuss in greater detail, feel free to call your Recruiter or myself at 781.833.0275.

Pros

Learned a lot while there.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations were held by management

Softworld Response

Thank you, and I'm glad to see you learned a lot. I agree with you that we expect a lot from our recruiting and sales professionals; I would respectfully not use the word "unrealistic" as demonstrated by the outsized amount of top producers we have within the industry and the compensation those producers earn, but I appreciate you sharing your truth regarding your tenure. Whatever path you've taken since moving on, I hope you're now within an organization and/or job that best aligns with your own career. If there's anything else that you'd like to share regarding expectations and what we can do to improve, I would appreciate any deeper thoughts you'd have. I can be reached directly at 781-373-8452.
