        Pros

        It would be a rude to potential candidates if I did not share this experience about Ramsey Solution's Christian beliefs. Specifically within their education department. It is hard to determine if Ramsey Solutions Christian foundations are genuine or a facade. One thing that led me to this company was the Christian virtues they proclaim. I was disappointed in leadership when they began to pray, in a department wide meeting centered around prayer, about how the recent hurricanes in Florida would be impacting their sales and inventory first, then jokingly mentioned after about praying for people and children. They will pray for blessings on a specific dollar amount, with team members interrupting with hoots and holler. Even though Dave and leadership consistently pray over the team, make no mistake, this companies main focus is money. Hoping that this issue can be corrected by leadership and that this is not coming from a genuine place of using God's name as a branding image. Unfortunately, I don't feel confident to share this information with leadership due to fear of retaliation.

        Cons

        Please see what I wrote above.

        We would encourage you to share your experience with the leader of your department. Every Team Member is encouraged to share their thoughts and opinions with their leaders here at Ramsey Solutions.

          Pros

          The biggest pro about working at RS is there are a lot of really great people that work there. They also have events and entertainment for employees on a fairly regular occasion.

          Cons

          RS is an extremely conservative company. If you are not an evangelical Christian or a Republican, you will feel very uncomfortable there. You are required to go to a weekly devotional. You cannot opt of this devotional. People in the LGBTQ community will not be hired and if for some reason you're able to get through the hiring process, if found out, you will be fired. You can also be let go for having sex with someone you're not married to if found out.

          We agree that there are a lot of great people a part of the team! Our Mission Statement states that Ramsey Solutions provides biblically based, common sense education and empowerment that give hope to everyone in every walk of life.

            Some very great people! Great lunch options. Good schedule.

            Cons

            Very controlling, narcissistic boss who tried to get involved in my personal life, high pressure that felt disingenuous to the customer and unattainable for the ae long term.

              Pros

              The Ramsey family is one exceptional group of individuals. I've greatly enjoyed getting to know them and their heart to serve Jesus. What I first learned at Ramsey continued growing as I learned of their passion to follow God's leading and use our talents and gifts to share Christ with the world. I found Ramsey Solutions to meet my expectations as a Christian-owned company focusing on helping others manage their finances well. I loved Dave's heart; we were here to bring hope to others.

              Cons

              Ramsey has grown quite a bit since I first joined them. We not only moved to a new location, but we moved into a different mindset. Early after joining Ramsey Solutions, our current CTO moved on, and we were without a technology leader for many months. I was surprised to learn that we had hired a consultant to move into the role of new (CTO to be) technology leader. This individual seemed to lack the basics of a spiritual influence. Instead, they carried themselves with an arrogant pride that seemed entirely out of place in the company of great leaders like Dave. Our technology team seemed to have a new focus, one of money and pumping up the reputation of our technology leader. What a disappointment to realize just a year before I had decided to relocate my family here to work for a Godly company. Now, I seemed to be directed by someone lacking any spiritual example, even going to the extreme of being a self-centered fool.

              5

              This is a confusing post. We've only had two CTOs in the history of the company. Both of those people are still here. If you would like to talk about your concerns, my door is always open. -Armando (Senior Executive Director of HR)

                Cons

                Some in leadership micromanages and a few are not trustworthy.

                    Pros

                    This place is extremely toxic.

                    Cons

                    I came in being a fan of what they teach. However, I ended up quitting because of poor, horrific "leadership". Do not dismiss all the negative press and negative reviews. This company goes to extreme measures to silence employees and to control every aspect of an employees life. Before deciding to even interview here, PLEASE find former employees to talk too. Current employees live in fear and someone on my team was actually fired after "talking ill about the company" all because a board member happened to be at the same restaurant as this employee and "overheard" their private conversation. There are MANY more horrific stories- just do your research and you will uncover 99 reasons to not pursue a job here. My immediate manager, or "leader" as they say, continually lied and manipulated us. He discouraged us from seeking raises or going to senior leadership. However, when I rang the alarm and all his wrongdoings came to light- senior leadership did not hand out any consequences. Instead, he simply had to apologize and got to remain in charge. This company fires employees for lying but protects leaders who lie. And THIS is the main problem of this company: Leaders protect leaders which promotes a culture of dishonesty, fear and fear of retaliation. People continue to leave the company in droves yet the company has now forced everyone to sign NDAs to avoid anyone from continuing to speak out. THAT speaks volumes. Need I say more? You've been warned.

                    We have plenty of former Team Members who left on great terms. We'd also encourage you to talk to current Team Members. We have about 1,000 to speak to. They are the secret sauce to this place and key to our strong culture.

                      Okay health insurance. 401k match.

                      Cons

                      This company does not care about you. You are a number and nothing more. With more and more companies moving to permanent work from home and even four day work weeks, why wouldn’t this company even try to match that? I sat at a computer nine hours a day and could’ve just as easily and more pleasantly done that at home where I have my pets and physical comfort. This is the worst sales job I’ve had and I’ve been in this industry 20+ years. It’s embarrassing to have this company on my resume. Ramsey’s principles preach to the middle to upper class only. If you literally come from nothing, according to Ramsey, you’re already failing. Spending $5 a day at Starbucks isn’t the issue. The issue is inflation, limited housing and for some, unavoidable medical debt. My daughter was severely ill for four years. Like many people, my family acquired debt from medical services and treatment. It happens. But according to Ramsey, any debt and you are a failure. This company is emotionally abusive and the boss wears a facade. Avoid this company. It’s not worth it.

                      Sounds like this wasn’t a good fit. We wish you best of luck in your future endeavors.

                        Working here you will meet some of the best most talented people you've ever met. If you believe in the mission, the work is also extremely fulfilling.

                        Cons

                        The Ramsey leadership team creates a very tough environment for the team, especially if you don't fit their mold of a two parent household with a stay at home spouse. There is very little flexibility in schedules and if you don't agree 100% with decisions or actions of the leadership team you are immediately marked as "disloyal" and your remaining time there will be miserable.

                      Hello guys, I applied as Chemical engineer in a big company and I did with them all the interview steps (last one on 05/09/23), at the time of the interview there was no job opening and I got the interview through another division. Last week I received an email saying that they will let me know their final decision by the end of this week. Today I have received an email (with the job description attached) scheduling a call in few days for sharing the decision. Do they want to reject me on call?
