Vanguard reviews

100% monotonous work, angry and rude customers, no real room for growth unless; forced overtime, management has serious disconnect because they never started at the same level of the majority of the workforce

-This is not a "real" investment company/ investment job. It is a phone job. You're a live body making sure their are not too many people waiting. The phrase "Wal-Mart of investing" is thrown around a lot concerning Vanguard, and it's true. They will pay you peanuts compared to the competition, but when trying to leave the competition either hires you out of pity because they started their too or you get a "Vanguard, that's nice" since the name holds no weight with the "big boys" -Every job is the same with a different title. It doesn't matter if your a client relationship associate, dual hat, or in a specialized division.. you're there to get the client off the line as fast as possible. -Shortened lunches are now the norm. No one wants your "free" lunches when you supply them from the Sodexo cafeteria. -Employees are treated as cattle, unless you're ethnicity is not-white or you're a girl. If you're both you'll be a shining star.
