Pros
Friendly work environment. Everyone is helpful and there is a huge sense of community here.
Cons
Slow to adapt change. You must be able to adapt to the work culture and pace of "corporate America".

Pros
The company offers pension after 5 years of employment.
Cons
This company continues to overpromise and under deliver. There have been many internal changes in the last year resulting in a decrease of compensation but added responsibilities. The most challenging part is utilizing their systems. Their systems are as old as the company and they do not integrate well together which results in double and triple work. Communication throughout the company is non existent and when major changes come down the pipeline - the agents are often not notified until the day the change goes into affect. The office hours are 9-5:30p but you are expected to work until 7 several times a week and work 3 of 4 Saturdays every month. The compensation is based off multiple metrics and is designed in a way to put money back in AAA’s pocket, not the agents that work hard. You are assigned a variety of tasks in which you are not compensated for. They tell you it’s an opportunity to cross sell but it rarely works out. I worked for the company for 15 months and had 6 different managers in that time. The employee turnover rate is astronomical because there is no cohesiveness or consistency to how they do things. You are forced to learn through your mistakes because things are constantly changing and so chaotic. Departments do not communicate and things fall through the cracks.

Pros
There is not a whole lot to praise AAA for. The only positive thing is that its easy to get a job at this company.
Cons
Everything about this company is bad. There is no work/life balance, AAA treats their employees like numbers, and care only about referrals more than customer service.

Pros
Job not complex. Company is economically stable.
Cons
Many undocumented processes, tribal knowledge for basic processes. Process that should take minutes take days to complete. Career advancement opportunities and salary are stagnant. IT management is not proactive, and wait to last minute to upgrade solutions. Technical debt piles up and IT management react late to proactively be ahead of it.
