Pros

1) Working on Wall street was a nice experience albeit I worked primarily in the NJ office. 2) Pay was decent 3) Interview process actually made me think they knew what they were doing

Cons

1) They didn't know what they were doing 2) Micromanagement 3) Everyone that is hired there is currently looking for another job 4) Boys club/old school policies 5) Work from home? Not a thing 6) The people I reported to were the absolute worst. Privacy isn't a thing, managers wanted my cell phone (and I was a salaried worker...not contract or anything on "the job") 7) Zero space from management; meaning they are in your face big time 8) Company looks like it's growing from their hiring page...no, it's actually because they let go/people left. The place is a revolving door. 9) Backend system is SharePoint and Excel sheets which is fine until you realize it's a sales organization and everything is half baked on there 10) Did I mention the people are terrible? 11) Going into this, the company claimed they were one of the "Happiest companies" ... I really have to disagree with that. 12) Check out their LinkedIn, they seem like they know what they're doing...right....right?? No. They don't. 13) They merge days off and vacation days. Not a good idea. 14) Technology is archaic 15) Really the worst experience I've ever had. If you're looking for a job, do yourself a solid and walk away. Don't talk yourself into it. Don't keep going through the interview process. Just turn around. X their email/website off your browser. This is the place of nightmares.

Thank you for submitting your feedback regarding your time spent at Align. We are committed to creating a comfortable, transparent, and collaborative environment for our employees, so I am disappointed to hear about your experiences. It is not clear when you were with our organization, but we are happy to share that we have implemented new systems and tools within the past 2 years that are helping to automate and transform our organization. In regards to your comment about PTO - the decision to merge vacation and sick days was made after receiving feedback from employees. Align professionals feel this system is competitive and allows for flexibility on how to use those PTO days. In closing, the average Aligner has been with the firm for 6 years. We find this stat reflects positively on our culture and investments in our professionals. We wish you best in your professional endeavors.
