Pros

The role is 100% remote with the option to come into the office at any time. There is flexibility in how you plan/work your day. The firm offers bonuses & profit sharing. Although the home office employees have no idea what the metric is to meet to get a nice high bonus. Branch employees make more than is listed as a base rate because of bonuses. Benefits are ok, they need to be modernized though.

Cons

The expectation that you spend all day on the phone is insane & draining. All calls to talent acquisition, and made by recruiters or consultants are recorded. The hiring managers are not told this so heaven help them if they are ever sued for saying or doing something inappropriate in an interview. There will be plenty of proof. Training is lazy.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
