Pros

An A plus training program for underwriting. A great place to start your career, get your two years underwriting under your belt, maybe get a designation (they do pay for it) and then start looking for a company that will pay you enough to actually afford your bills and food. Also, lower management is often kind and considerate. They often have to be the bearers of the bad news, or try and spin upper managements words into something okay for an employee to be told, but in my career they did try and be supportive. My teammates were great, as were my other peers. Hybrid. I liked the hybrid schedule and being in the office two days a week. It was nice to connect to people on those days, but certainly less work was done on those days with all the distractions and noises.

Cons

Low pay. Gaslighting tendencies to make it seem like 'your fault' your pay is too low. Not rewarding tenure. You do not feel valued the longer you are there. They invest when you first begin, but just expect numbers by the time you leave. They override decisions all the time, and don't back up a choice on bad policies. Bad management choices all around. Health insurance was middling. More like a discount program at times.

Pros

Easy job to do if you’re halfway smart and actually try.

Cons

Low salary compared to other companies. Raise your concerns with this or anything else and management basically blackballs you for any opportunity for growth. You can do twice as much work as some of your co-workers and still get the same measly 3% annual raise. You’re better off coasting through the job rather than giving 100% effort. The harder you work, the more responsibilities they give you without any monetary compensation.
