Pros

Seems to be a great company to work for but I'm remote so won't know until I move to the office. Good benefits.

Cons

THIS JOB IS SO STRESSFUL. They do provide 6 weeks of training but honestly, there could be 6 months of training and it wouldn't be enough. Workload is crazy and the calls are nonstop. You're expected to answer emails in between calls but the calls never stop coming. Each AM has hundreds of clients assigned to them and the questions from clients are impossible to answer. I have never felt so stupid in a job before and I'm a college educated person! Pay is HORRIBLE based on the stress level. Some of the Team Leads should NOT be in the position they're in. There are not enough hours in the day to succeed in this role.

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
