Pros

Great 401k Wear jeans every Friday Front line non-management employees are great to be around, young and bright work force I can sometimes afford to pay my rent on time

Cons

The health insurance is terrible I'm expected to be a top salesperson, expert collector, bounty hunter, telemarketer and credit analyst all at once and I'm paid less than any of those one job titles As many reviewers before me have said, management will give you an action plan, and when it doesn't work out they will deny ever telling you that and throw you under the bus Work life balance, meaning you will live at work and work will be your life Much of what it means to be a successful employee is about skirting certain policies Working with ancient technology with no option for telecommuting

Pros

Your peers. I have a great group of co-workers though multiple have left because of HORRIBLE direct management in the AM department.

Cons

Low hourly pay. Tricky incentives. Shark like environment. Terrible and I mean TERRIBLE managers. Favoritism runs rampant at this place and goes unchecked. Lazy, incompetent department manager makes up his own rules (you MUST use your break time to go the bathroom) which goes endorsed by his superiors and HR. Reward people who live at that place and work insane OT hours because of the low pay, but crap on people working the normal amount of hours because you’re based on the “average”. Truly one of the worst management staffs I have ever seen coupled with lackadaisical training and one of the dumbest rules I’ve ever heard of…you must be at One Main for ONE ENTIRE YEAR before you can transfer out of the department or move up. Trust me when I say run as far away as you can from this place.
