Pros

The atmosphere and work ethic is awesome at this company. It's all about serving those who service us in the military. You work hard for what they provide you, ex. gym membership on site, relaxation room, huge cafe, etc. The attitude is always no one left behind which was encouraging.

Cons

Employment is contingent on passing a state licensing exam, the 4-40. They pay for a one week class and three chances to pass. It's incredibly difficult. My advice, if you can afford to take a class on your own, take the test before coming in so you don't have to deal with the stress of taking it there.

Pros

Life work balance, great benefit package and nice colleagues. The goal of the company is providing the best service to its members. So, they treat employees the best to encourage them to do the same for members.

Cons

Slow IT support, limited interactions with industry. Banking business is not as mature as insurance.
