Monterey, CA

Former Employee – worked at Capital Insurance Group full-time for more than 3 years

ProsCIG is a great place to work. This is a small/medium size company with a very friendly environment and plenty of opportunities. If you have the skills and desire to learn and grow, CIG will give you the opportunity to present your skills and prove that there is no obstacle to big that you cannot overcome.

ConsCIG's compensation does not rank very high. If you like to learn and refine your skill in a small but friendly atmosphere; then CIG is your place to work. If you are looking to get "paid", then you might decide that CIG is not the best place for you.

Advice to Senior ManagementManagement style is good here. Only advice is "you get what you paid for". If you want talented workers to stay and work for you, then sometimes you have to recognize that and try harder to keep them.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Monterey, CA

Current Employee – been working at Capital Insurance Group full-time for more than 3 years

ProsExcellent stock option program. Long hours are not expected. Open and approachable managers and execs.

ConsBelow average pay. Company continues to make small cuts to benefits without any increases in salary. Managers can be very short sighted with company goals, they hate to give up on programs that are clearly failing, and love to play the blame game when things start going wrong.

Advice to Senior ManagementAvoid the politics and focus on what matters; remaining profitable and keeping your employees happy.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Camarillo, CA

Current Employee – been working at Capital Insurance Group

ProsThey are great at working with you when you need time off and the Employee Stock Option is a good retirement program. The benefits package they offer has a lot of options to chose from. The supervision and management team do allow you to perform your job with minimal interference.

ConsThe sytems and claim handling processes are very out-dated. There are no real internal operating procedures that are geared toward the companies claims handiling. The company is a smaller insurance company so the pay is quite a bit lower than the industry average. While the leadership does allow you the freedom to do your job, it relies solely on one person to make all claims coverage and handling decisions.

Advice to Senior ManagementReview and implementation of the claims systems and guidelines needs to be completed on a regular basis and in a timely manner.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
