A Shell of What It Once Was ....

Pros

Worked with some awesome co-workers. Made some decent money and benefits at my level.

Cons

Company is floundering, top-heavy to the max with high-level, home office management, since 2008 financial crisis senior management can't seem to understand that cost cutting is not an overall business plan. Everyone waits for the layoff ax to fall as the company has been shedding jobs at an astonishing pace for years. They roll layoffs throughout the company on a regular and continuous basis just below the cut-off number which would require public reporting by law. After almost 15 years of loyalty, including sticking by the company in the immediate 2008 aftermath, the reduction in force (RIF) ax finally hit me.

Pros

Solid place for college grads to start off with Insurance Academy Strong environment to learn the fundamentals Expansive portfolio guarantees you see some of the largest clients Working with other proven and talented employees Good benefits (24 days PTO, 100% match up to 6% 401k and 3% on top, work from home flexibility)

Cons

Constant structural changes before results can ever be realized Clear distinction between executive management and rest Always hire senior roles from outside the organization, and no real path for growth Compensation slightly below average comparing colleagues and peers NO ANNUAL PAY INCREASES. None. Zero. May review your pay once in 3 years and no guarantee it changes from there. Expenses are always in jeopardy so layoffs/cuts are ongoing. Told to do more with less and roles not back-filled.

Pros

Super benefits, 401K with company match, health, life, ample amount of paid time off for employees with 5+ years, work remotely 1/2 the week, and I know I add value to the org every day.

Cons

There is a lot of talk about work life balance here, and there has been for years, but they are just buzzwords here. Employees are consistently asked to more with less people and in less time. Unrealistic expectations around delivery dates come from top leadership and flow down to middle management, and then out to each employee. Eventually, there is no one left to delegate the work to, so those employees miss dinner with the fam, their son’s baseball games, or every doctor appointment they know they need to schedule, but who has the time for that? Not the guy on his laptop that is working during the baseball game instead of enjoying it.
