Western Union reviews

They do not recognize talent, they keep the talent boxed where it is, no promotional opportunities. The culture was very abusive here, people will do anything to get ahead. I mean...anything. Better learn Spanish. Quotas are issued after the fact, they cheat you out of your commission. They expect you to buy a new car on your own dollar every few years or you can’t do your job.

-I'd say that 80% of the managers have no idea how to "people manage." -Upper management is out of touch with the 9-5 employee. -If you work in Operations just be weary. Your job could be outsourced to Vilnius at really any time. -The pay is ok for starters (0-4 years of experience), but any manager who is aggressive about career development is under paid. If one isn't a go-getter then his/her salary is probably in-line with the industry, but any go-getter who stays with WU is essentially taking a big pay cut. An analyst role with a big firm will pay one more than a senior manager role with WU. I guess what i'm trying to say is that there isn't much advancement in terms of salary to be found at WU for a serious career minded employee. The company higher ups like to say that they conduct studies to ensure their pay is in-line with the industry, but they don't understand that top talent needs to be paid MORE than the industry. To put it simply, WU is utterly incapable of keeping top talent because they pay an average wage, and what happens when you pay top talent an average wage? Just ask WU HR, they're kept mighty busy filling and refilling the same positions...
