Pros

Great PTO and work/life balance

Cons

It’s all about your cronies. In order to move up or be recognized you have to be in the right crowd. Inclusion is talked about a lot but the company has a lot of work to do here. The recent merger with Esurance was handled horrifically — making all of us feel under appreciated to say the very least. The company moves at a snails pace and you really can’t get anything done because every single thing has to go through so many reviews and approvals. Management talks about transparency .. Sr. leadership tries at this .. but middle management hoards information. It almost seems like there is a worry that they don’t want to be seen as better than or equal too and the best way to do that is keep certain things under wraps. If you like working at a faster pace, where you see the fruits of your labor this is not the place for you. If you like SLOW ridiculously over engineered environments where everyone and everything needs to be reviewed and where you get flooded with company emails but have great vacation time this is a perfect place for you.

Pros

Good benefits and ok PTO

Cons

Terrible pay and composition structure. Point bassed systems are only used to screw your sales agents out of money. I doubt they will be around another 50 years. Management proudly says that the way to move up is "be good where you are". Upper management is disproportionately F. All the agents hate the job and its very obvious to see.
