Pros

Benefits are great (medical, amount of vacation, profit sharing, company match, etc.) Vnaguard has very competitive funds at a low cost to investors - this is the only thing that they do perfectly and the only thing they need to.

Cons

Salary Low Ceiling Company promotes tenure not performance Hires and maintains may incompetent employees Getting a day off. Example: I submitted a request for a week off 4 months in advance and did not get it Example 2: A co-worker asked for a day off to go to his cousin's funeral and was not approved. He called out sick to go to the funeral and received a formal warning.

In the satelite sites, there can be limited growth opportunites. Many of the roles are in a call center environment.
