Pros

Great place if you are obese, as they are always having eating contests and cooking challenges.

Cons

Where to start? We're also so demoralized that some departments are having interviews to see how they can get people to stay. You can't fill out a survey there because nothing is anonymous so they will track you down if you say anything negative. It's a men's club. If you hang out with the right people, you get a promotion. If you are a woman or a man who prefers going home instead of drinking with the boys, you pay the price. They spend tons of money on things that don't matter, such as entertaining lavishly but plead cost optimization when you ask for more money to do your job. No one volunteers for anything, because you're not rewarded. Then they try to have team building exercises and wonder why no one is interested in participating. We're all leaving because unless you're a man who already has drinking buddies there, you have nothing coming. Not good for your health, mentally or physically. They have health challenges, but then they turn around and have cookoffs and wing eating challenges. They are all about talent acquisition instead of talent retention. When you join, they make sure to lowball you and no one is allowed to know their salary range, so of course, you get the short end of the stick.

Pros

Compared to other companies… Exec leadership is good at change management communications. They make it obvious what they’re planning to do next as external pressures increase. Everyone has access to copilot There are a ton of benefits (but they’re confusing and disorganized). Parking rebate, education reimbursement program,

Cons

The worst tech organization I’ve ever worked with. Technology is extremely outdated and the people aren’t helpful. They’ll close your ticket without ever contacting you and you’re left spending hours going in circles. This makes their onboarding VERY difficult for new employees who can’t find anything. Customer service roles are very very unhelpful. For example- credit card group sent the job aid in response to a question, I shared with them the exact areas where the job aid links were broken and incomplete and got no response. Compensation was lower than the market by a significant margin.

Thank you for your positive comments regarding communication, AI access, and benefits. We recognize that reliable technology and responsive tech support are both critical to a positive employee experience —especially during onboarding. It’s concerning to hear that you encountered difficulty getting assistance and unresolved tickets. That’s not the experience we aim to provide, and your feedback highlights areas where we clearly need to improve.
