Pros

Never thought I would end up in insurance, but I'm glad I did. PURE's interviewing stood out because they focused on culture fit rather than boilerplate resume questions. I'm lucky to have landed here out of college, as I've learned so much about the industry, made great strides in my professional development and made tons of friends along the way.

Cons

Every company has downsides, but PURE is extremely open to feedback and is looking to consistently improve, which is all I can ask from an employer.

Pros

Best company I’ve worked for. The culture is genuinely people-first and you feel valued, not just like a number. Leadership is transparent and accessible, compensation is competitive, and the work is meaningful. You’re set up to succeed and given real autonomy to do your job.

Cons

Like any growing company there is always room to refine processes but PURE is constantly improving and receptive to feedback. Nothing that outweighs the positives.

Pros

Coworkers, solid 401k matching, health benefits

Cons

One of the hardest lessons I learned early in my career was that not every workplace is healthy, and that toxicity can become normalized when leadership and HR reinforce it. Employees were routinely gaslit into working long hours for minimal pay, taking on excessive workloads due to chronic understaffing, and overcompensating simply to stay afloat. Any attempt to set reasonable boundaries was met with reprimand, pressure, bullying, or eventual push-out (which appears to be the default approach). With the current leadership, this culture is unlikely to change, and it’s unclear whether that is a concern at all. PURE’s culture offers only two paths: full, unquestioning compliance (regardless of personal cost) or being quietly pushed out. I chose self-respect over compliance, rebuilt my confidence in the workplace, and found a company whose leadership genuinely recognizes, appreciates, and celebrates my success. I promise, you can too!!!
