Vantaggi

10% of Salary to 401k, 4% more matching on the 401k. Pretty flexible with schedules.

Svantaggi

There are definitely promotion 'quotas' that must be filled regarding minorties and women. We had a very bright guy leave the company because he wasn't promoted. Mgmt was baffled and kept saying if he could have just waited 6 more months. A manager actually admitted that everyone up to his principal was 100% behind him being promoted, but when it whent to corporate, they had to promote a certain % of minorities and women first and he fell below the line. Training is often lacking. Perception is far more important than reality. Bonus structure was radically changed drastically reducing from mid-level mngmt down. However, upper level bonus structure remained. Raises do not, in most cases, keep up with inflation.

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”.
