Your experience is weighed heavily on the manager you report to, especially in a branch. - Loan Specialist OneMain Financial Employee Review

Pros

Good benefits, compassion for colleagues from upper level management. Decent opportunity for bonuses. Great way to get into lending.

Cons

If you have a manager who lacks leadership, you will not be motivated for long, not have constructive feedback or consistent support. Branch Managers are left to do as they wish. Very goal driven business. You'll work more than you expect if you're in a busy branch. You do not have enough time in the day to think things over or properly prepare. My experience has been in a very busy branch, lower volume branches with strong leaders probably yield a much more positive experience. The learning process at the beginning is very rushed and overwhelming.

We feel managers should be interacting with their team, and being present and accessible. If you see this as an ongoing opportunity, our experience shows that hearing this feedback directly from the impacted employee can be a powerful motivator for individual change. HR is always available to help you provide your feedback. - ck

Pros

Your peers. I have a great group of co-workers though multiple have left because of HORRIBLE direct management in the AM department.

Cons

Low hourly pay. Tricky incentives. Shark like environment. Terrible and I mean TERRIBLE managers. Favoritism runs rampant at this place and goes unchecked. Lazy, incompetent department manager makes up his own rules (you MUST use your break time to go the bathroom) which goes endorsed by his superiors and HR. Reward people who live at that place and work insane OT hours because of the low pay, but crap on people working the normal amount of hours because you’re based on the “average”. Truly one of the worst management staffs I have ever seen coupled with lackadaisical training and one of the dumbest rules I’ve ever heard of…you must be at One Main for ONE ENTIRE YEAR before you can transfer out of the department or move up. Trust me when I say run as far away as you can from this place.
