Pros

Monday - Friday schedules, vacation time, paid holidays, tuition assistance via pathways, reimbursement for Gym memberships up to $300, and paid short term disability while sick.

Cons

Micro managed at all levels. Your tone of voice is even judged and monitored. High pressure sales tactics. When customers have problems with accounts that are easily solved given a bit of time that time is not given. Thus leaving the customers without their problems solved. If you have ever had the desire to experience abuse and anxiety here is your chance. It will just be a matter of time.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

Cons

Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
