"I don't know what to say here because I did ask about advancement at my first interview as well as about professional growth opportunities. The answer was appealing, but later after few months discovered that many great employees already left as well as people are getting ready to leave. Most if not all of the people that I knew while working there left because of the hiring and promotion practices. Heartland do not tend to promote from inside. Instead, they bring new people with no experience. May be its because of the high turn over, but the question is why there is turnover In addition, the culture is like everybody is replaceable and there are a lot of people are looking for job!!! You figure from here."
