Do as I say, not as I do

Pros

Opportunity to work with good people

Cons

Senior management is completely disconnected. Employees are subject to strict in-person requirements, with attendance tracked by badge swipes, even though employees must sit at "hot desks." Meanwhile, most senior execs are allowed to work fully remotely. Just one small example of a "do as I say, not as a I do" culture. The result? A demoralized workforce & constant turnover

Pros

Very exciting times at Western Union with the pending acquisition of Intermex and a lot of the announcements around wallets and digital assets

Cons

The international offices seem to do a good job around cultural and office events while the US seems to lack this in some areas.
