Pros

Big, secure company. That's all.

Cons

This is the first employer I've had that I believe is actually immoral. The fees charged to clients are exorbitant, there are unnecessary obstacles clients have to go through to get their money, heaps of paper is wasted, and heirs of deceased clients are treated very poorly.

Pros

Smart people, good benefits. Good horizontal mobility. They take good care of you when you travel.

Cons

Gender discrimination against women - I was paid $100k less then my male counterpart for same exact job. Regulatory environment killed all sense of entrepreneurship.

Pros

High-Competitive hourly pay. And great for stock and economic education, and business financial professionals.

Cons

One of the worst call centers I have ever worked at!!. Poor Trainers. Salt Lake/Sandy location only. The trainers acted liked the crew of "Jersey Shore". And were more interested in playing online games, and getting into people's personal lives then helping or answering questions with regard to economics, or tax questions. I was fired and not given a reason. Even though I was on time everyday, and passed all my tests, and adhered to company policy. I was through a temp agency, and when I asked the staffing service why I was fired they said I "Clashed with Management"-- Utah is an "AT-Will" state. However, MS had also told me that in training they had an "OPEN Door Policy". I feel that they should have opened their doors to discuss any perceived differences, or had taken some kind of corrective action such as a written, verbal, or a final before firing me. Which they did not tell me why. Ironically, they fired me just before I would have been eligible for benefits... This is a reason why some american s don't have health insurance in Utah. Because employers out here are wasting time to train employees, then firing them if they are not as "trendy" as the management... in my opinion.
