Pros

Work environment is mostly relaxed. Benefits packages are outstanding. A lot of internal training which is excellent IF you intend on staying with the company.

Cons

Most individuals are cordial but not a family type of atmosphere. Technology leaves a lot to be desired. Advancement not as good as it was in the past. Now a lot of politics involved to get ahead. PFS and MFS are more for show than anything else. Always an excuse for lower bonus incentive payouts.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
