Reviews about "great benefits"
Return to all Reviews- 4.0Nov 8, 2021Financial Crimes InvestigatorFormer Employee, more than 1 yearSan Antonio, TX
Pros
The benefits are amazing and the amenities on campus are great
Cons
Work load was immense and required numerous overtime to stay on task. Lack of managerial knowledge of complex tasks required. If you like being a robot, this is the department for you.

Pros
USAA is a great company that truly believes in servicing members of the military, members first. USAA had great benefits when I started in 2019 but slowly started to change to not so good above competitors. It’s overall a good place to work overall.
Cons
It’s cliquish, San Antonians get preferential treatment so if you’re an outsider, it’s not easy to maneuver and be productive.

None so far but there’s gonna be some with every job

1 - 3.0Aug 3, 2014Financial Foundations Senior SpecialistCurrent Employee, more than 5 yearsSan Antonio, TX
Pros
GREAT benefits health /401k match 8%/ tuition reimbursement / bonus for holidays and end of the year performance
Cons
It's a call center. You must adhere to a strict schedule so limited time to network or make friends and no chance at getting promoted to the area you want to grow with company. Strict means two 20 min breaks and a 35 min lunch for 8-10 hour shift. The rest of the time it's back to back phone calls to barely drink water.

Pros
Great benefits including 2 for 1 match on 401k up to 4% (8% match). Serving the military and their family.
Cons
Very large company (could be a pro).

Pros
Great benefits for employees but you have to work here for a year or more to receive them.
Cons
Managers dont listen and will not help you at all. People are not treated equally expecially if your a military veteran like myself, the civilians dont know how to handle you. Then you'll be an outcast and you will be targeted like myself.

Pros
Starting out as a new college hire, this is a great place to work. They start by introducing you to the company and its mission and values (which the company truly does follow). After that they put you through a training program that teaches the USAA development environment. I was afraid this was going to be just a 'here's how to program class', but instead it was a really useful opportunity where I became friends with other new hires, learned how to use the development environment, and got to work on real work from teams in a learning environment. USAA also has a program called Nexus for new college hires where you hang out and network with other college hires (You can be a member of this for three years after joining). Along with this, USAA has a program called Aspire which is about helping women in tech. As a female in tech this is a really great place to work. My team has almost an equal number of women as men. The benefits are great and my manager really encourages using your own initiative and asking questions. All of the management is super friendly, and I can go to anyone in the office and talk to them. I really love working here, and I love how much this company truly focuses on serving the members.
Cons
My pay isn't as good as if I worked at google, but it is adequate for a single person living in this area. I might have given up a higher salary, but I feel great every day because I know what I am doing is helping make our member's lives better and easier.
