Pros
Good benefits package although that has declined every year that I have been there. Good 401 Match... also the 10% that they contribute to your pension on top of your 401k is huge More then ample time off. Great employees to work with (non Managers). I met quite a few good friends there Training is pretty good Great name to have on a resume. On my search prospective employers liked my 5 years at Vanguard
Cons
-The pay is god awful. I left there making $48,000 as an exempt employ and left for a job making $68,000 with overtime. -Career progression is non existent. -Vanguard got rid of their Partnership program where nearly everyone took a pay cut and they sold it to us as if we asked for it. -Promoting the culture is more important to advancement then doing a good job is. -It is run much more like a kindergarten then a business. Everything for chili contests to stupid games for the united way -the past 2 years I have worked for 3 Team Leaders all of which were younger woman who had NO EXPERIENCE in the business. Also all were hired without the staff having the opportunity to interview for them.
