Dallas, TX (US)

Former Employee – worked at MoneyGram International full-time for more than 3 years

ProsCo workers are good people for the most part
Nice & new offices to work
Pay is good

ConsShady HR department
Don't hire from within
All departments work separately, neither knows about changes coming

Advice to Senior ManagementBeware of HR department, they would rather fire an employee bringing up a problem than try to fix that problem.

Make sure middle management has basic knowledge of Microsoft office and are able to do their jobs without help from subordinates.

Current Employee – been working at MoneyGram International

ProsThe benefit package that's available is pretty good. New hires come in with a nice amount of paid time off days.

ConsEverything is changing so swiftly within the company, it is really hard to trust anything that is coming from upper management.

Advice to Senior ManagementOpenly communicate with your employees, the sooner the better. All employees are aware of the changes that is being made and you have a lot of loyal employees that haven't felt like the loyalty has been returned.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
