Pros

Career advancement and pay for performance mentality. High ethics. Excellent benefits. Ridiculous 401k plan with a fair vesting schedule. Really great training.

Cons

The only downside to Vanguard is the take home salary pay. It is competitive but it is not the highest in the industry.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
