Pros

Great people, however a lot have left, used to feel like a family and there used to be lots of opportunity. They give people good opportunities to learn and grow, move abroad etc. Not scared to make bold changes.

Cons

Decisions are made, you get part of the way to making it happen and then the landscape changes. No long term goal, just satisfying the shareholders from quarter to quarter. Significant change to regions, leadership, with short-term pressure.

Pros

Very exciting times at Western Union with the pending acquisition of Intermex and a lot of the announcements around wallets and digital assets

Cons

The international offices seem to do a good job around cultural and office events while the US seems to lack this in some areas.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO - only 3 days required in office

Cons

- Leadership does not foster a collaborative culture. Sometimes inappropriately mean, dismissive, toxic. - 3 days in office required. Seating is not assigned, so you do not have a guaranteed desk for your items unless you come in 4 days per week for 3 consecutive months.
