Purpose Financial

I worked for this company for over 13 years. What a change. This was a great company to work for. They took care of people and understood the business they were in. Now they don't have a clue but if you can produce a good powerpoint presentation you are golden. Otherwise forget people with knowledge, experience and a track record of success. Senior management doesn't believe that there is any value in those traits. All they do is talk at each other and tell each other how much they know and what great ideas they have. They need to stop trying to be management consultants and hire people who can operate a business.

It is the worst job I ever had in my life, they lie at the interview offering good compensation, bonuses,  enough hours with overtime availability,  training,  etc. But everything is a circus there, if you ask for help the answer is always " NO,, corporate does not want to invest on it." 
You will receive at least 2 emails every day saying that something on the system is not  working properly, managers and/or district managers just take orders from their bosses ( no power to do or implement anything, almost like working on a drive thru at a fast food place . )
If you truly value yourself,  don't even waist your time applying with this company. 

I worked in two roles during my time there and neither were great. They lacked opportunities for advancement and often selected people based on tenure over skills. In my first role I was expected to produce more simply because I had the technical skills to do so while others could skate by and make relatively the same amount of money. in my second role my manager would actually write down the times I came in and left for the day. I was a salaried employee and that shouldn’t have mattered. Never had attendance issues. She was just not good leader and it was likely due to her lack of leadership experience. 

I was a collector for 2 years and put in a lot of work that resulted in me getting promoted so you are rewarded based off the effort you put into your job. Management in the collections department really cares about your opinion and suggestions when it comes to your job. This department is goal based so your reviews are all based off your work ethic. This is a fast pace work environment so you need to be motivated and ready to work at the start of your shift. 

This is one of those businesses that hires the same kind of people who could/would be customers there. Maybe, if you're a broke single mama who doesn't want to work in the fast food industry. In the 9mo I worked there, I think we got a decent bonus two or three times. The pressure is on to make those quotas ("goals" as they call them) and the whole store has to make quota or nobody gets a bonus. I can't recommend working there. 

I've been with Purpose Financial over 10 years and it keeps getting better.  The senior management has a clear vision of the direction the company needs to take to continue to be successful in an ever changing and very competitive market.  The projects that we have the opportunity to work on are challenging and very rewarding.  I look forward to going to work every day and enjoy the team I get to work with.

Toxic work culture and leadership. Avoid at any cost!!!

The leadership chain right from CTO and his coterie of VPs at Purpose Financial lacks significant Engineering and leadership skills, experience, and efficiency to run any engineering organization.

Please don't join this company if you care for your identity, skills, future and peace. You will repent later. There are much better organizations out there.

The team level experience is all of what makes working for the company decent. Anything beyond that is horrible. The company will find ways to discredit tenure employees for termination in order to avoid paying benefits upon release. This by far has been the worst working experience. The top performing employees are the 1st targeted and considered for termination. How does that make any team want to perform? Yet, the company drives for performance. 

The place is a zoo! They don’t pay you enough for all the work they want and the training is horrible. We were told we’d train for 3 weeks (trained for 1) and then kicked us out on the floor, totally unprepared. They preach 9 great values, but I didn’t even get the chance to see them because the workload is so extensive. There literally isn’t anytime to breathe in between calls. If you are a collector, I urge you to know your worth. Look further. You’ll thank God in the long run. 

This is an easy going job but the management and supervisors and not organized and they do not work have a work/life balance the supervisors and managers are nothing but catty and do not help and tell you to look up information instead of giving you answers to service customers. The customer are not the nicest so you have to deal with getting cussed out every other day then deal with the supervisors getting smart it’s not enough money to deal with the cons that come along with this job
