Pros
Being able to put “Vanguard” on a resume and meeting some of my closest friends.
Cons
Unfortunately the company has taken a turn for the worst. Over the past 3 years, many things have changed about the company itself as well as the culture. No matter what department you work in, there is always extreme micro managing. There is no growth or getting promoted here, it’s nearly impossible. I’ve heard colleagues compare it to the movie “The Hunger Games.” Essentially you are up against many other internal applicants (sometimes hundreds) and there is only one opening available; the person who is going to be selected for the job is already predetermined before they even conduct the interviews. Keep in mind there are over 16,000 employees just at the Malvern location, and with that being said, it is close to impossible to get a promotion.
