Liberty Mutual Insurance reviews

Very bureaucratic and a lot of box checking.

Recognition at LM is entirely set up to recognize individuals and specifically within LM Tech organization, the environment is very political and toxic because the concept of 'win as a team' is not embraced. Majority of the workforce has been there their entire careers, and career paths are generally vertical (vs. horizontal/matrixed). This creates an environment where people in senior level positions have worked together since right out of college. As a result, the tough conversations that need to happen and business needs go out the door in favor of friendships and favoritism. People who come into mid-level to senior roles from outside of the company are generally not embraced and influencing change is difficult. This also leads to leaders turning a blind eye to bad and unethical behavior of others. Especially in LM Tech - the culture is increasingly toxic and political. There is a lot of opportunity for LM to evolve, but they get in their own way by sticking to their old patterns. The Leadership development is seriously lacking. As a new manager, I had zero leadership development other than self-service learning modules in the L&D platform. My own manager had zero skills in how to provide development and coaching as a manager of managers. With the latest RTO mandate for employees living within 50 miles of the hub, remote employees are being left behind. Travel options are getting more limited due to expenses and remote employees are no longer on equal footing as their peers that live close to offices. Employees that are able to RTO are treated with preference.
