A typical day at work consists of dealing with communication with the progress of self-lead projects and also coordinating meetings with community partners. Since it is a retail space dealing with customers when they come is a must. Providing an excellent experience backed with a breadth of financial knowledge is also key.

Management is non-hierarchal. Decisions are usually made autonomously with a group consensus.

Co-workers were great. Everyone worked together in order to help each other grow and succeed on projects. There is open collaboration and a lot of trust placed on the individual.

The hardest part of the job was when it was RSP season. Even then it wasn't that difficult. What this job requires is a creative mind-set, and the drive to pursue your own projects to the fullest extent. Hard-work is a huge factor for success.

The most enjoyable part of the job is coming into work. Everyday is a new day and with a small team, you are always learning from each other. There is a lot of sharing of information and articles as the job requires one to be up to date on certain trends. There is also a requirement to be on top of your social media knowledge. You won't have a bad day of work... ever.

A typical day at ING direct would be like going to a get together with friends. You see people you haven't seen in awhile and catch up, then go back and continue your work. 
I have definitely learned a lot by working there, such as the banking procedures and policies. It's a great place to learn how to deal with different types of clients on the phone under high pressure. 
Management wasn't too bad, some were great, some were mediocre!
My co-workers were awesome, but the turn around is getting higher.
The hardest part of the job is just dealing with irate clients on the phones, but the most enjoyable part of the job is you meet some of the coolest people.

ING was a wonderful company to work at. We had structure to our workday, but also had the freedom to take care of things as they came about in a secure and judgment-free manner.
I loved the atmosphere among my co-workers and the management was fair and supportive.
I felt we, as adjusters and management were able to truly take good care of all of our clients with confidence and care.
Unfortunately, ING was bought out by another company and it was at that time that the overall atmosphere began to change.
We became stressed and management changed because of the stress as well.
I truly miss what we had before the buy-out.

Scan your e-mails first thing in the morning and make phone calls to clients to settle their claims. Go out and view clients vehicle write estimate and valve their vehicle. Learned their computer programs & how to deal with clients to make them as ease with the process. Had very little dealing with management on day to day bases. Talked with co workers on dealing with different process and problems that would come up. The hardest thing on some occasions would be the trouble clients. The most enjoyable was meeting new clients.

The culture at ING DIRECT is second to none and it is what makes the company so special. You make life-long friends working here, from the CEO who knows your name and is one of the most active public figures on social media, to the people who work with you everyday and the clients, vendors, and groups that you interact with. It's a great place.
Many use ING DIRECT as a place to get their feet wet as the experience is good but the compensation can be better.
Besides that, it is truly innovative, fresh, and revolutionary. If that is what you're looking for this would be the place to be.

-The people I worked with made the day go faster
-I learned how to communicate about issues they were having, learned more about accounts that we offered and more about the financial world.
-Management was easy to get along with, very personable and identifiable.
-Hardest part of the job was dealing with unhappy clients and the miscommunication that can come along with that, but it doesn't happen often
-most enjoyable part was working with fun people and making a client happy and they are appreciative

This job required me to take phone calls all day, it was in a call centre environment. Clients could be very rude however it did not affect me. The worst part of the job would be some of the management. Some co-workers were great to meet, and have become friends of mine to this day but their were others who were unpleasant. The most enjoyable part of the job was that you managed your own time by logging in to your computer.

A typical day of work @ ING was busy doing reports and made sure everything will be done by end of day. I learned so many things throughout my employment at ING direct I've been assigned to different areas within the operations department. I always enjoy working in this department since we are always worked as a team with common goals. The most enjoyable part of the job were we always have this kind of cooperation in order for us to succeed as a team.
