Pros
It's a job but not much more than that. If you like a company that is content with being stagnant and suppresses innovation and initiative, Nationwide is for you.
Cons
If you are over 45 years of age, forget any promotional opportunities, assistance with career development and keep an eye over your shoulder, as Nationwide openly practices age discrimination. Also, pay, promotions and recognition are not based on performance of achievement, they are based on who you know. Cronyism is a significant problem at Nationwide and is major reason for the low morale. Nationwide has very thin bench strength, having purged it's most innovative and experienced employees. Those who weren't fired, left are or are leaving because of the incompetent management. Natioiwide sucks all the ambition and creativity out of you.
