Pros
1. Decent Pay 2. Good office locations 3. Good office environment and workspaces 4. Decent at offering training and travel opportunities for employees 5. Internal mobility seems pretty good at least for lateral transfers.
Cons
1. Work-life balance is not balanced within the company. A lot of people coast until they can get into a central function because the client-facing jobs (revenue-generating) tend to be stressful. 2. Client-first mentality comes at the expense of Synchrony's employees - as long as client is happy no one cares that you are suffering. 3. Poor leadership, especially with mid-level managers. 4. Poor technology in analytics and mobile services. 5. Diversity program is irritating, obnoxious, and too much (and having worked in HR that is saying something). 6. Meeting heavy culture where much is discussed but little of it is valuable and worth the time expense.
