CNA Employee Reviews about "work from home"

Pros

flexible work from home schedule

Cons

infrequent communication from leadership team

Pros

Salary. Good benefits if you stay for 5 years.

Cons

This review is in reference to the Houston branch. Heavy turnover! Very few Underwriters stay longer than a year. About 10 Underwriters have left in the past 12 months. Red Flag. Poor management. Bullying approach used to encourage results, but this approach puts a damper on morale. It is not uncommon to find managers yelling at employees and belittling them. The term 'micro-manager' has been used to describe the management in the Houston office. Heavy monitoring of everything you do. For Underwriters who are used to somewhat of a work/life balance, you won't find it here. There is no 'work from home' option and there is monitoring of the time you get into the office and the time you leave. Make sure you don't go over your 45 minute lunch! Unrealistic workload designed to not pay out bonuses. Expect to work late nights and weekends to 'meet expectations' of your job, otherwise accept being mediocre and don't expect a bonus. Multiple meetings a week to ask Underwriters what they are doing and what they plan to do the next week. This is normal if it was done less frequently, but multiple times a week is very excessive. There is a lot of favoritism here. No diversity. Very few women Underwriters. Certain people are treated better than others and it's not related to performance. The Houston office is run like a dictatorship and it's stressful. Bottom line, if you decide to work here for the good salary, just know that you've been warned.

Pros

Great location in the Chicago loop. Good work life balance and can easily work from home occasionally. Fairly compensated with a good number of company holidays.

Cons

Lots of petty kingdom building by senior leaders. Too many bullies at senior leadership levels. Company states that people are an important asset but I am sure that if the executives saw what was happening at one or two levels below them, they would be shocked. Lots of valuable money and time wasted on dealing with these bad leadership behaviors.
