Vantaggi

Not much. Contrary to popular belief, Vanguard is not the best place to work. The organization has gone down hill in the 15+ years that I have been employed there.

Svantaggi

There is a rampant air of disrespect and discrimination. "Managing out" is a term you will hear constantly. If you are over 40, near retirement, a Black woman or disabled in any way, you are on the managing out list. If you speak up and are honest about anything, you are targeted. Don't dare tell your manager that you disagree with their point... You might be escorted out right then. The shenanigans are real. I actually overheard a manager talk about "getting someone out..." Your work ethic does not count. Only who you know and who likes you. And if you have a best friend at work, then you might survive. That shows you are "nice." They keep "nice" people. Did I mention you have to go out to lunch, dinner or drinks for the manager to see you are connected with the team? Even if you don't drink? Oh by the way, make sure you contribute to the baby shower gift and boss' day gift.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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”.
