Pros

It’s a job, which is better than unemployment

Cons

The infrastructure is old, yet it’s a relatively new company. Technology and business model is awful. They keep on buying business without the technology to support it. Too many systems that aren’t in sync. Constant layoffs and talk of tightening expenses. Work much more than 40 hours because of all of the manual work due to lack of proper technology to support their products. No one I know is happy or properly compensated yet Empower is rated a top place to work?!

Pros

Empower fully supports work life balance. They also support and encourage community service. I like the fact that they match not only by monetary contributions, they also match actual volunteer hours with money. Management at all levels is committed and invested in you professionally and personally.

Cons

None that I have found.

Pros

Many smart people genuinely want to grow & succeed; An excellent long term strategic vision backed by long term oriented investors; Ample growth opportunities at a business that is very well positioned for long term growth. Leaders that genuinely care about their people. Remote work is truly an advantage - just the lack of a commute makes a large difference. Opportunity to be at the ground level of a company that will develop a much stronger national brand over the next decade.

Cons

Delivery & Execution are areas that are truly challenging in the high growth/evolutionary environment that Empower is in today. Cultural changes are happening within the business that create some competing priorities, though Sr. Leaders continue to lead through this. Working with people across the US means don't expect a normal schedule - early / late starts and working lunches are the norm.
