Pros

I am continually impressed with how many colleagues that started around the same time as me continue with the firm. Great West does a very nice job of creating a culture people want to be a part of. Access to opportunity also stands out. It is a very exciting time to be at Empower.

Cons

The only real downside, if you are a glass half empty person, is the company is undergoing a rapid transformation and the amount of change can be a challenge.

Pros

Many smart people genuinely want to grow & succeed; An excellent long term strategic vision backed by long term oriented investors; Ample growth opportunities at a business that is very well positioned for long term growth. Leaders that genuinely care about their people. Remote work is truly an advantage - just the lack of a commute makes a large difference. Opportunity to be at the ground level of a company that will develop a much stronger national brand over the next decade.

Cons

Delivery & Execution are areas that are truly challenging in the high growth/evolutionary environment that Empower is in today. Cultural changes are happening within the business that create some competing priorities, though Sr. Leaders continue to lead through this. Working with people across the US means don't expect a normal schedule - early / late starts and working lunches are the norm.
