Pros

international company with huge brand great opportunity to master change management with strategy changing every year salary and bonuses are paid on time loads of good people around

Cons

every communication is Denver-centered and matters little to the non-US based employees (both WU and WUBS) HR communication reg top managements is very detailed - but communication reg issues that matter more to the regular employees is less so a lot of change within, that mainly translates is cost cutting and layoffs

Pros

Western Union was a great place to grow if you are motivated. The company wants to do well and generally efforts are well focused.

Cons

Lots of turnover that hurts a company that does write it's how to do things down. Challenging market that takes market share consistently.
