Pros

Room for growth within the company. Great customer service experience. You can learn a lot about financial services. Days off during the week.

Cons

Very strict rules. You are not allowed to leave for lunch. You are not allowed to be friends with your coworkers. You get shifted from location to location often. Long shifts. Your experience can be really bad if your manager is bad.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We appreciate the perspective of former employees, as it helps us continue improving our workplace. I'm glad to hear you felt there was room for growth within the company and that you gained valuable customer service and financial services experience during your time here. I’d like to address a few of the concerns you mentioned: Policies and Breaks We do have certain policies in place to ensure safety, compliance, and consistent customer service. However, employees are entitled to breaks, and no one should feel they cannot step away for lunch. If that occurred, it’s something we take seriously and address with leadership. Coworker Relationships We do not have a policy that prohibits being friends with coworkers. What we ask is that employees maintain professionalism and avoid any conflicts of interest. If this was communicated differently at your location, we appreciate the opportunity to clarify this with our teams. Location Changes and Scheduling Occasionally, shifting between locations may be necessary to support business needs, and we understand it can be challenging. We’re continually evaluating ways to create more stability and balance in scheduling. Impact of Management You’re absolutely right that leadership plays a major role in an employee’s experience. We invest heavily in leadership training, and feedback like yours helps us identify where further coaching or support may be needed. We appreciate your honest review and wish you all the best in your future opportunities. If you ever want to discuss your experience in more detail, my door is always open.
