Pros

Strong capital allows the company to pursue many possible business ventures, and they're very stable financially.

Cons

Too many pokers in the fire, and not willing to staff up to support the speed they want to move forward at. This is a "total compensation" company, so pay is lower than competitors.

I feel the same way, too often we start down one path and then there is a change. Some of this is necessity, some is a lack of discipline. We need to commit to less and get it done. We wish you all the best.

Pros

People matter. Clients, employees, and community alike matter. In the call center, sufficient training. Tools are available to do your job. Getting help is always available. Even though it's a call center, you can still call back with the right answer. You are allowed to research the information you need.

Cons

No part time positions in the call center in Everett. A lot of different places to find the answers what you're looking for but not everything is always in the place you think it would be or titled the way you think you look up making searching for answers sometimes challenging
