Pros

The people, you build strong bonds especially if in office. The education department are passionate about what they do so the initial training is great. Perfect if you're wishing to build resilience, empathy and communication, they do offer adequate training on such.

Cons

Little support for long term employee care, many people are met with "maybe this job isn't for you" after being verbally abused by a customer on the phone. While they do have an EAP, it is very transactional. A lot of managers have tenure that infects their egos, making it a cliquey culture and you can find yourself in positions where you simply cannot progress if your manger does not wish for you to. Lastly, the company can be too hesitant around modern socially political topics. While they do hire with diversity in mind, the support for said diversity is more just for show.

Pros

Good benefits, hybrid work arrangement is flexible (you can choose your 3 days in office)

Cons

Tenure and friendship is valued more than actual skillsets. Many people in Ops have no formal college education or true technical skills, and have been complacent in the dept for 10+ years. This leads to inefficient and stale processes that are reluctant to change. The culture is extremely passive aggressive and long-tenured employees are not welcoming to new hires from outside of the organization. People will go out of their way to sabotage opportunities for those offering new perspectives with greater value add. This causes forced interactions with low value collaboration. Many in analytical roles do not even understand basic Microsoft Office skills, Excel functions, V/XLOOKUPS, etc. and data is often reviewed manually per line item… This company is run like a low budget mom and pop shop where inefficient and backwards practices are toxically in circulation.
