Pros

Great people, pays well, opportunity exists for lateral movement. If you like Compliance this has great job security

Cons

Reorgs 1x a year EVERY year. Sticking to a strategy has been a challenge. Lack of focus stretches resources and leads to professional frustration.

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.

Understand that traditional remittances are dying

Not enough resources available to drive transformation. Legacy tech. Outdated systems, processes. Too much work expected per employee.
