Pros
Brand is respectful along with its longevity and integrity. I have never seen so many people be willing to work so hard for a company. There are a lot of long term employees that provides stability to the organization as well as introspect and history. I primarily stayed because of the brand name and because I was able to continue on with my responsibilities with little interference from above - a situation that is certainly appealing to me.
Cons
What is most disappointing about The Hartford is its leadership (or lack of the right leadership). There is a club mentality and unless you give up your indviduality and independence, you will not make it into the club and you will go nowhere. And, what's amazing, the individuals in the club aren't taking The Hartford anywhere either - as evidenced....
Advice to Senior Management
Take a fresh look at senior leadership in GBD - it's smoke and mirrors.
