Pros

A wonderful company that provides extraordinary benefits and flexibility to have a healthy work/life balance. If you have children, it is a perfect fit.

Cons

Corporate office is in Des Moines IA so not as much opportunity to know corporate leaders unless you go for training.

Pros

This company provides excellent benefits like paid time off and volunteer time off. Has very flexible working hours and work from home opportunities. Decent pay.

Cons

Having enough staff can be difficult which results in lots of overtime which at long stretches can really be tough. Most of the simpler/easier work get's out-sourced putting lots of pressure on processors to learn higher skill tasks.
