The Vanguard Group Employee Reviews

Great benefits, opportunity for advancement across many disciplines

Terrible worst ever and i want to quit

Been on downward spiral since 2017. The Vanguard I joined 10-15 years ago is nothing like the Vanguard that exists today. Bottom line now trumps clients, absolutely no regard for or concern over non MD+ employees (majority of whom are struggling to make ends meet). Used to be a great firm. Sad.

It has been fantastic overall

I prefer not to answer

They work very well together

Review from IT Dept

They really listen to our concerns

My leader is the only one that seems to cate about crew on a personal level.

Everyone works well together in the group.

They will guide the teams in the right direction

Recognizing talents, giving them their dues and good and competitive pay based on good performance

Acting in clients best interest, rather than self interest

Improve portfolio and program-level planning. Remove us versus you mentality between IT and Business teams. Improve collaboration across the business units by working on serving the true end customers (investors). Properly define products and improve involvement of product management Agile Coaches.

Leadership needs to share the wealth with everyone, not just the managers.

Review from Sales Dept

Be more honest and actionable

One of the best 401Ks of any company in America and life changing at that. Medical and dental + stipend on top of it and HSA are extremely good. All top of the line.

1.5x match for HSA and 401k match.

The best part of my compensation packages it mostly it's made it up with base salary

Review from IT Dept

Medical and life benefits and partnership bonus

The pay for phone reps is better than most in the industry

Comp structure punishes loyalty. If you join company in entry level and work your way up over the years, you will be living check to check. External hires will begin at 30-40k more for same job. Pay needs to reward loyalty if anything. Market adjustments to reflect industry. CIL adjusments!!!!!!!!!!

They tell you it’s a 37.5 hour work week but you are given 50 hours at least and many work on weekends to catch up. A lot of admin tasks that high end communicators should not be doing. Completely different skill se

Most compensation is tied to bonuses that are tied to results that I have no control over.

I know just as much if not more then the people I graduated with. And according to them we are doing the same kind of work: building API's, writing business logic, manipulating/storing/retrieving data. Yet they are being paid almost double what I am.

Give me more money for my work

The people. Collaborative, inclusive, diverse, talented

Manager is definitely not worth it, and I have heard it across teams, they really don’t care even if u are a top performer and want to gr

Review from Customer Support Dept

I enjoyed working with both IT and business teams to support the product.

They work very well together and partnership

Review from IT Dept

Generally, they are on point with a common goal.

Coworkers are good but managers are mostly not worth it

Coworkers are good but managers are really not worth it. That’s the reason they fail at creating leaders and are forced to hire from their competito

Do more team stuff together

You have people who complain and get their workload pushed off to other lower level associates and those lower level associates aren't recognized, awarded, or promoted for taking on additional work.

Review from Sales Dept

Focus more on core business and problem solving in an informal way. Also everyone MUST adopt Agile culture.

Review from IT Dept

There is an extremely high level of respect for every individual I have ever seen

Talented people that are fun to work with

Close to walking trails and folks like to get out and walk. Great way to connect.

Everybody is very friendly and nice

Review from IT Dept

Extremely friendly and manageable work life balance

Value employees as much as they value investors

They should value employees equally as much as they value investors. Pay them well and try to recognize talents by giving them proper promotions

Review from Customer Support Dept

Start listening to your employees. Reward and promote people who want to change the status quo instead of pushing them out.

Too much talk about NWoW but management is focused on old way of doing business. Senior management must adopt Agile culture and focus on core business than look good culture.

Review from IT Dept

A better compensation package, and racquetball coutts

Review from Finance Dept

It's about the individual rather than super in depth prompter style questions they believe in the person and their resume

Too easy, no challenges, interview process was okay

I liked the hiring manager but unfortunately, he left the team shortly after I joined.

Everybody was very knowledgeable and thorough

Review from IT Dept

People are nice not arrogant

A good job that is challenging alongside great coworkers and leadership

I love working in the product management space.

The work is very interesting and challenging

Review from IT Dept

Extremely positive and high energy environment.

My employees are good people

Review from Finance Dept

If you are an investor or client, the company is good for you

Leadership turns a blind eye to issues. Management doesn't actually do anything.

Review from Sales Dept

Management and career development need a serious makeover

Review from Finance Dept

Work from home options would do wonsers
