Pros

Good atmosphere, good work-life balance. Pay could be better.

Cons

Lots of turnover, so the knowledge is lost sometimes. Old system and technologies (but they are working on that).

Pros

Since starting at WUBS over 12 months ago I have received nothing but support from all departments in helping me reach my personal aspirations. Since joining I have progressed roles and the company have offered multiple channels of training and opportunities to work with experienced employees.

Cons

I have found no cons with working for WUBS and the company can help you if you have the right attitude to succeed.

Pros

A Global Company with a rich history, great staff and a number of great products. I Have been employed by Western Union - Business Solutions now for almost two months and coming from out of industry meant a steep learning curve. That said the training provided has been next to none. An induction and learning week that was very informative, taught at a level that could be understood by all. As explained in the induction that the majority of learning will be done actually doing the job, there is alot of availability to shadow meetings and be Shadowed in your own meetings experienced managers. This allows the progression to be consistent through out. Great Earnings, Car, Laptop, Phone and working from Home whilst being paid generously.

Cons

FX industry is very much like all sales roles. ie Car Sales, Tele Sales so can come with some stigmas from customers, but this can be overcome.
