Pros

None this place is a nightmare

Cons

I would not recommend working in the Debt Negotiator position at JG. Wentworth. The job is heavily oversold during the hiring process, especially when it comes to earning potential and bonuses. What’s promised upfront and what you actually experience once you start are very different. Management is disorganized and, at times, feels unprepared to properly support the team. Expectations change frequently, and communication from leadership can be inconsistent, which makes it difficult to stay on track or feel confident in performance goals. The bonus structure is another major disappointment. It is presented as a big incentive during recruiting, but in reality, it’s much harder to achieve than implied, and many employees feel misled after getting in the role. Turnover is extremely high, and that alone says a lot about the work environment. Most people don’t stay long, and there’s a constant cycle of new hires coming in and leaving shortly after. Overall, the experience feels stressful and misrepresented. In hindsight, I would have chosen a different opportunity and recommend others carefully research the role before accepting it.

Pros

Work life balance. It is motivation to look for better employment opportunities.

Cons

Ive not experienced any other work circumstances like I have with JGW and I pray that I never do again. It took me reaching out to my manager numerous times and getting no response and reaching out to HR 3 times to finally get clarification on what the correct pay would be, when accepting the job offer I was given incorrect information on how the commission break down works, that took me being employed for 3 months to finally get that answer but it opened my eyes to realize ALL of management lacks proper communication skills. The accounts we are given are terrible I have kept track of the accounts I am reviewing in a day after typically reviewing 100 accounts in a day there is usually only 5-7 accounts that are successful to send offers on this is less than 10%. The communication between customer service and negotiators are horrible, and their processes are ages behind. The customers go with JGW due to the name but they are light years behind other debt settlement companies.
