LoyaltyOne Employee Reviews about "great people"

Pros

Some great people below leadership

Cons

Dated executives, no vision, president is a goof ball and his leadership team are bullies. Especially the marketing team. Client service no longer has any leadership since they made changes last year.

Pros

Great people. Great building. Great benefits.

Cons

Up for sale. LoyaltyOne has been dissolved and they are selling up. Precima has been sold. Awaiting on a buyer for AIR MILES. Recent posts on social media about an avid “collector” who submitted a cartoon about a recent promotion. That “collector” is actually a marketing exec who’s followers have tripled since the post and is now monetizing from the repost. Embarrassing lack of leadership. Embarrassing lack of truth towards the public. Just let it go

Pros

Great people to work with. Motivated professionals

Cons

Work life balance is not great. 12+ hour days are common.

Pros

-Beautiful new offices with amenities galore, patios, staff cafeteria, barista bar -Overall good culture, some great people across the business

Cons

The department that should be the most ethical, setting an example for the rest of the company, is by far the least. The leadership of Human Resources is seemingly immune to any recourse for the turmoil and constant turnover in their group. Everyone unfortunate enough to roll up under this regime (even indirectly or several levels removed) can look forward to being treated with suspicion, scrutiny, and mistrust, unless you happen to be one of the chosen ones. Favouritism and special treatment are rampant. Ethics complaints swiftly swept under the rug. Constant turnover (except at the top, of course) results in scope creep for those who manage to stay on because the leadership likes to experiment with not backfilling roles in order to appear leaner and "do more with less". No advancement for subject matter experts with years of experience and significant accomplishments if you don't fit in with their warped, cult-like ideals. They'd sooner have the tenured people out anyways, so that they can bring in cheaper talent or one of their cronies from another shop. Criticism (constructive or otherwise) is instantly crushed. Need proof? Just watch for the one or two extremely positive reviews that will immediately follow this one. The HR team are regularly astroturfing these reviews by soliciting individuals from around the business, or just writing them themselves. They are obsessed with image, perception and survey results. The beautiful new office that all of the reviews rave about is the ultimate monument to this. It is merely an illusion, a tool that they can use to seduce new talent and submit pictures of to win "best employer" awards. On a whole, the HR philosophy is to value the talent that they don't have yet, over the talent that they do have. Everyone is replaceable, and the next best hire is always just around the corner. Once they've got you, that's it. Development and advancement are a carrot on a stick. Things may be just peachy elsewhere in the business, but if you are an HR or Workplace professional, stay far, far away.

Pros

- Lots of great people - Work/Life Balance - Subsidized Lunch

Cons

- Management, was fine until the CTO "quit" - No career growth here - Prefers contractors over full timers - Lots of politics - Very high turn-over rate

Pros

Engaged work force, lots of great people working there. Office settings quite pleasant and modern.

Cons

Company and top management surfing on its historical success. Company executives and literature describe great values to internal and external stakeholders but fail to deliver on those.
