Pros

* The mission of the company is admirable -- helping families with members behind bars stay connected and providing technologies that help agencies offer their residents the opportunity to better themselves and prepare for a smoother return to their communities after serving their time. * Good people working hard to get things done -- anyone outside of the "leadership" group -- those without the title of Director, Sr. Director, VP, EVP, CPO/CRO, CTO,COO, CEO,etc -- the folks outside of that leadership are, with some exceptions, knowledgeable and could get things accomplished if leadership group would actually make decisions that would product revenue instead of making decisions that waste limited resources.

Cons

* Leadership group -- they lie to employees when they even bother to talk to them. They do NOT think through all the potential implications of the decisions they're making and most have very little experience in the areas they are trying to branch into; additionally, they are allowing their positive revenue-generating products suffer benign neglect while they try to chase products that will always be net losers for the company. As a result of three + years of chasing unicorns (media, post incarceration, education) they are laying off hundreds of workers, not paying their bills, losing customers and desperately trying to refinance loans they otherwise cannot pay. * Lack of identified priorities - given the current limited resources, projects that either, generate net positive revenue and/or could allow for expanded net positive revenue should be the priority.

Pros

My internship at Aventiv was a truly valuable experience. Unlike some programs where interns are only given small or surface-level tasks, here I was trusted with real responsibilities that had an impact. The projects I worked on made me feel productive and part of the team, not just an extra set of hands. Coy were supportive and open to feedback, and I appreciated the balance between guidance and independence. I walked away from the internship with stronger skills, new perspectives, and tangible accomplishments that I can point to in my career.

Cons

The company is quickly expanding, so sometimes it can be a little hard to find information or resources right away.

Pros

Working from home was nice

Cons

Management has a us vs them mentality. They do NOT listen to the people actually doing the work on the front line. When I was working at Securus/Aventiv the atmosphere was a bit hostile toward the staff, and HR (which covers the company) was not helpful for the staff. There were a few really good supervisors and managers, but then when you hit upper management, communication fell apart.
