Pros

Hybrid work opportunity is the greatest pro of this company at this point.

Cons

Employees are over worked and underpaid. There is little opportunity for growth, particularly now as the business is rapidly deteriorating and hemorrhaging customers. The company has not paid employees a full bonus payout in years and yet the executives continue to take millions in compensation, even new executives who have contributed less than nothing to the company. “Merit” increases are no where near current rates of inflation and executives don’t care to address any of these issues.

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.
