Great place to work! - New Business Associate ELCO Mutual Life and Annuity Employee Review

ELCO Mutual is a great company to work for, with a supportive team environment and positive workplace culture. Management is approachable, communication is clear, and employees are treated with respect. It’s a professional, well-run organization that values teamwork and quality work.

Some internal processes feel outdated and can make the workload heavier than it needs to be. With more modern systems and streamlined workflows, daily operations could be more efficient and manageable for employees.

Work schedule, location and size of the company is great. They buy lunch on Wednesdays for everyone in the office.

Our health insurance is TERRIBLE now. Through 2023 we had a Blue Cross HMO that was good until the company changed their company and forced everyone to change to a new PPO plan with some unknown company. The cost to see a doc has doubled. There is no longer a copay but now a huge deductible. The expensive manager's plan started getting money this year to cover about $3000 of their deductible, the employee plan gets zero so all our costs are now out of pocket. I've had to cancel my last appointment as I can't afford the $1000+ it would now cost me. Since last year the copay just to see the doc once a year has doubled. Most of us on the employee plan have spent more in the first 3 months this year than all of last year combined. If you have a family or kids, the cost is even greater! Management really gave us the short end of the stick this year when they pushed everyone on the new plan. We can no longer afford to see a doc with our insurance.
