Pros

Some fun coworkers. Laptops were nice. Carport training facilities and accommodations in Ohio were nice. Cannot think of anymore, but there is a 20 word minimum.

Cons

Excessive and unmanageable workload. Cannot meet standards with the amount of work given. Can never leave at the end of the day having completed all the work needed. Little to no training. Management is not transparent nor do they value employee input. Management provides criticism without tools to improve. No employee support. No HR presence nor any HR support whatsoever. Most non-management roles are lateral moves. Low raises around 2% annually. Extremely high turnover. ALWAYS understaffed. Morale is down, employees are burnt out. Favoritism and sexism by management is evident. Low salaries compared to work complexity. Not very good benefits (high deductible plans, small amount of maternity leave, etc).

Pros

Room for advancement outside CRE, great culture overall the work life balance is great. Pay and benefits are competitive. Nationwide as a whole has a fantastic Culture, however not all departments are equal.

Cons

its hard to write out cons, overall I really enjoyed my time at nationwide. However the department I was in was ran was ran by a clique IE high school drama and gags. if your in, your in.

Pros

-For the most part, the people you work with are good people. Made real lifelong friends and mentors. -As with all large companies, there are plenty of opportunities to advance and/or move around if something isn't a good fit. -One of the rare places still offering a pention

Cons

-Office politics promote plenty of people who don't deserve it and the teams happiness is highly dependent upon who you end up reporting to -WAY too much false urgency created by bad leaders -Big company means slow moving in all the stuff you want to go fast. Often times too many cooks in the kitchen
