Pros

It is a almost impossible to get fired. If you can reserve a table for happy hour at Four Peaks the sky is the limit for your career. Clean bathrooms. Tuition assistance to help you land a job somewhere else.

Cons

You can't afford the seasonal ales at Four Peaks. Anyone who is interested in a real finance job gets their licensing, a little experience, and leaves. Very high turnover. Pay is laughable. IT IS A CALL CENTER which is fine but the company sells the jobs as a financial services position which you will be able to have a book of business and help people - this is not true. Everyone is miserable. I would sit in the parking lot in my car for ten minutes and cry everyday before going in. The level of incompetence of people working there (especially management) is disturbing.

Pros

You accrue time off quickly and can buy an extra week of vacation. Former "sick" days are now just personal vacation time so I had 6 weeks of vacation (plus holidays) by the time I left. The company not only matches 100% of your 401(k) contributions up to 4% but also puts in 10% of your salary quarterly into retirement. The people are generally nice.

Cons

There are very few options for advancement outside of Malvern. Unless you want to go the management track or financial planner route, you will most likely be in customer service if you're at the AZ or NC sites as HR and other groups are extremely limited.

Pros

Vacation is great, so is matching for 401K

Cons

Once you've worked there long enough to have a strong, stable resume, there's no reason to stay because it's difficult to move upwards.
