National Interstate Reviews

I worked at National Interstate as an intern for less than a year

Pros – Can really make a meaningful impact as an intern. The opportunity to gain experience in many different areas.

Cons – With all the regulators insurance companies have to report to, there is much more work to be done then the average accounting job. No flex time.

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

I worked at National Interstate

Pros – People are fun to work with.

Cons – Basically everything else besides the people. Pay isn't great and if your in the "in" group you will be promoted otherwise don't get your hopes up.

Advice to Senior Management – Take care of your employees more and they may stay around longer.

I worked at National Interstate

Pros – Senior management is very accessible.
Nice size company that is growing.
Typically hard work is rewarded as long as the employee can stay focus.
They appreciate their employees

Cons – Bonus checks have gotten a lot smaller for the lower level employees. Some managers are more attentive than others, but this is sure with every company.

Advice to Senior Management – Get more employee input before moving team members from one department to another. This could diminish morale. Overall solid company to work for.

I have been working at National Interstate

Pros – Family feeling setting but way behind the times

Cons – Terrible in thinking outside the box

8 to 5 no IF's ands or but's

NO FLEX TIME.
 If you are late because of snow or traffic, you better use PTO time

This company refuses to bend on flexible hours even for experienced salary employees
Way behind on the times in trying to be automated
They still use paper and their computer / technology is from the 1980"s

Advice to Senior Management – FLEX TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I worked at National Interstate full-time for more than a year

Pros – Fellow employees are willing to help
Location

Cons – Managment is more concerned with internal numbers then helping or backing up employees
No training on insurance policies or procedures
No flex time
Hours are long and there is not compensation, perks or even thank you for extra hours
Little to no direction from management, all help comes from fellow employees which is not always correct
For size of company benefits are expensive, 401K is a joke at yearly contribution

Advice to Senior Management – Good people are leaving due to management and lack of training. Focus on training current employees and not how many new hires are coming in every month. Update your benefits and outlook on flex time.
