      Pros

      Solid company that looks good on a resume. A good place to gain experience but not to spend an entire career.

      Cons

      Low pay and lack of career advancement. Management fails to tell crew everything, they gloss over many things.

      Realistic view of Vanguard

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      We have never laid off a single employee. The job expectations provide a consistent work environment (i.e. you know what to expect). There is significant flexibility at the manager level to work the hours that are appropriate for you to best balance you professional and personal lives. Vanguard offers tuition reimbursement. Our 401(k) plan is outstanding. Company match is 100% on the first 4% contributed. The retirement plan contribution is 10% of base pay. There is a year-end bonus structure for exempt employees. Employees will earn a partnership bonus that is calculated as a percentage of base pay for long-term employees or as a set number of shares for newer employees.

      Cons

      Lower pay compared to peer group, low cost structure, always trying to reduce services we provide to customers, limited budgets, corporate culture dominates the environment.
