Pros

- Fast growing company - Opportunity to take on lots of responsibility if you are up for the challenge - Exposure to senior management

Cons

- Starr's culture needs serious improvement so that more employees are excited about their work. I believe this will ultimately benefit the company in the long term and help to retain talent.

Pros

If you're an established middle management level professional, a senior executive, or a graduate of the associates program, the salary is competitive. Direct access to the most experienced senior leadership in the insurance industry. The opportunity to build a new book of business. Once you've been there for a while, possibly the opportunity to relocate with the company to a different office location. Certain departments have better group culture than others, depending where you are, this could be a pro. Some managers really care about their employees and do fun things with them & invest in their development and growth.

Cons

If you're not an established middle management level professional, a senior executive, or a graduate of the associates program, salaries are low per industry standards, and "you accept the job for the opportunity, not the compensation." Certain departments have better group culture than others, depending where you are, this could be a con. Long hours and 24/7 attached to your company phone (depending on your department) "you do whatever it takes"

Pros

Not many, half days before holidays, 7 hour day (on paper)

Cons

Seems like many managers and above were hired for who you know rather than what you know. The biggest problem I had there was everyone seemed to be afraid of getting fired at any time. They would dread meetings with their superiors because that was on their mind every time they would meet. The biggest goal seemed to be finding someone to blame.
