Pros

Some of the people you work with will be the best Very high salary for Colorado and nation Benefits

Cons

Constant layoffs Company strategy changes like the wind (5 year plans never last more than a year) Lots of complacent people (handcuffed to the Titanic, don't care about their jobs or company) Work-life varies by department and even team (from 24/7 to flexible / remote) Some senior management lives in another world CEO is a great person but not fit to lead company in today's cut throat business world

Pros

Western Union was a great place to grow if you are motivated. The company wants to do well and generally efforts are well focused.

Cons

Lots of turnover that hurts a company that does write it's how to do things down. Challenging market that takes market share consistently.
