Pros
Great co-workers (some). Relocation potential! Bragging rights. Discount on cellular services.
Cons
Most employees lie on our surveys bc we're worried they're not anonymous as they claim to be so here you have it: -A lot of GREAT people have left this company. -There is little to no training, so good luck! -Its so many unnecessary steps to processes, its hard to get anything done. -The workload is INSANE! You never walk out with all your work done, EVER bc the better you are the more they overload you. I had one portfolio my first year, I had 6 before I left IN THE SAME POSITION! -Raises are pennies for most while managers get bonuses (NO LIE! I got a $0.17 raise one year while a manager was getting $5K semi-annual bonuses) -A lot of people in lower positions are better at doing the job of the seniors they're assisting. -Overtime pay is not guaranteed! -Mangers are luck of the draw. A lot of them still operate on antiquated hierarchal mentalities. -Most promotions are slow and come only when convenient to someone else unless you're a part of the "boys club". It isn't based on merit and availability as it should be. -You can be forced to work in a manager capacity but they won't give you the title or pay officially. One amazing woman was a RESA/AREM for 9yrs working as a REM before they gave her a title even though she was doing the work (No exaggeration!) -They "downsized" at the same time they were bragging about being a top earner on Mad Money on CNBC. -The way they bill clients is very sketchy too bc a client can pay for a full-time REM not knowing they're sharing that REM with 4 other clients so its impossible for them to be full-time. Pretty sure that'll eventually come back to bite them. -I was forced to change offices without 24 hrs notice with no input! By far the most ridiculous, inconsiderate, unappreciated experience ever. -Managers plan things behind employees backs then suddenly drop the bomb without notice and pretend they knew nothing about it, a lot. -Benefits are expensive and their 401k match is dwindling! -Warned by veteran employees to RUN bc I'm too good for the company's bs. -EMPLOYEES HAVE A LOT MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS COMPANY THAN THEY ARE WILLING TO ADMIT!
