Pros

Pentegra is a great company that has been around for almost 75 years . Recently, Pentegra has received some bad press on Glassdoor – it’s time we recognize what is right at Pentegra on Glassdoor! Pentegra affords all employees the ability to make a good living, increase their overall industry knowledge, receive their professional designations, and attain a higher level of education. Pentegra offers competitive benefits including health & welfare plans, education benefits, a 401(k) plan with an above average matching contribution, a cash balance plan offered to all full time regular employees, comfortable work environment in all locations along with flexible work arrangements with at home work opportunities for many positions. Pentegra has consistently given raises to employees even during market downturns such as the major downturns of 2008 and 2009. All employees have bonus opportunity which is based on both individual and corporate results. The senior management team is accessible to all employees, they are honest and forthcoming—second to none in terms of integrity—the team does not live by the motto—“us first and the employees last”—we are in this together. The senior team realizes the biggest asset to Pentegra are the folks who come to work every day. The entire company wants to do the right thing—for our employees, clients and advisors—we care!!! We have a CEO who is honest as the day is long and approachable. He cares about the organization and the people in it. Employees genuinely like each other here. Rather than focus on the negative comments from former employees who may or may not have voluntarily resigned, we are continuing to move forward. Many of the employees that have voluntarily left over the last few years to explore other opportunities have approached us to return. We have re-hired many former employees and are happy to have them back where they belong. When people want to return it speaks volumes about an organization.

Cons

My only negative though with regard to Pentegra is that I didn’t get here sooner in my career!

Pros

Casual dress code. Flexible work hours

Cons

Everything else. Clear favorites. You’re punished for speaking up. Management hates to be challenged & you will never forget it by the way they treat you If you do question their procedures. Managment has no idea what the day to day job entails. Expectations are impossible. Very hard to give all of your time -overtime is expected- to a company that will tear you down every single chance they get. They do not back up or encourage their employees. I wish I had ample words for their lack of training. It’s a complete joke. As soon as you are hired you are set up to fail. No procedures or training guidelines. You would think that the company was started just last week. The pay is terrible compared to what Is expected of you and not even close to competitive. Benefits are average.

Pros

Benefits slightly above average but that's so they can pay you 40% below market rates. If you want to work at a place where you won't learn anything then this is it.

Cons

Not sure where to begin. Low pay, poor computer systems, no teamwork, it's not my job attitude of employees, management clueless.
