FWC lives up to their Core Values
|
|
Companies 5 Core Values are part of every aspect of your work day.
#1 TEAM, Transparency, Excellence, Passion and
Execution.
These 5 core values are not only discussed in management but between co-workers. Co-workers actually take time to nominate each other and share when they have seen a team member go above and beyond.
This drives and promotes a workplace that makes you want to work hard and excel in everything you do. Hard work is recognized and appreciated by all members of the team. Overall creating a supportive environment and a culture that is not easily found at a fast-paced, deadline orientated financial services company.
There are tons of other perks such as 100% employee paid health/dental insurance, 401K matching program, continued employee training, open policy for PTO including all bank holidays, customized wellness program, catered lunches and fully stocked break room but the things that matter the most have been listed above.
|
I can't think of anything to list here - so I will just comment that you will be pushed past your comfort zone and we all know this is where you grow.

Continue to promote a work environment that allows employees to learn, grow and push towards advancement should they desire. Keep up the great work on positive feedback and continue with the training, no better way to learn but to put that training into every day practice.

Amazing Work Place
|
|
Catered Lunches, Casual Attire, personal and professional growth trainings, encouragement and support, incentives, outings, social action... the list goes on.
|
Every con has 3 child pros. Insurance isn't good, but they offer health incentives to compensate. Leave policy is not structured, but they work with you so it is a non-issue. The space can feel cramped with the amount of people working, but that is because the company is growing beyond the seams.

Tons of growth potential. Company culture rewards growth-oriented employees and will fast track you if you want to push yourself.
Fun yet professional working environment. Not many egos or office politics getting in the way of smart and focused work.
|
Small to medium sized company, so for those who prefer to hide in the shadows of a corporate bureaucracy you might not enjoy working at Far West.

Horrible Company
|
|
Provide meals everyday, casual dress code, and no limit on time off (personal, sick, vacation)
|
EVERYTHING!
Executives do not pay attention to your concerns unless you are a manager. If you leave at 5pm when you have no work you will be talked about and said to not have "dedication".
Not a lot of room for growth and personal development. Great company before but there has been HIGH turnover in employees who knew their job and others within the past 12 mos. They were then used as a scapegoat for the issues the President and then COO did. Workload becomes tiresome and when you express that you need additional resources you have Sandler Training that teaches you "how to better manage your time".
Have to pull teeth to be considered for a raise. Clients are being brought in under horrible circumstances and you cannot manage them correctly without being reprimanded.

Be careful who you let manage your company before it goes down the drain. Pay attention to the high turnover and why great employees were let go.

Wonderful Experience, Great People
|
|
Friendly Environment
They will actually give you projects to work on and trusted me with big projects.
Loved going to work and getting to work on projects.
|
There were some days that were slower than others.
Work got repetitive but as an intern it seemed to be expected.
