Pros

Great money and benefits for the area. The maternity leave is their best perk. 6 weeks paid and falls under FMLA.

Cons

No work/life balance. Over worked and under paid. Very stressful. Unrealistic expectations. Salary means working 6 days a week at times. Expect anxiety attacks. This is not a 40 hour/week job no matter what the trainer tells you...

Pros

Multiple office locations across the country Hybrid system for those that like to be in office

Cons

Poor communication Low pay compared to other industry positions Software is old and outdated Positions that are typically salary are hourly based Most "surveys" to gauge employee sentiment are constructed in such a way that no negative feedback can be left Hybrid or in office is required, no option for full remote If you happen to be full remote, there is no upward mobility possible for you, period. Excessive workload Not very good benefits

Thank you for your feedback. We understand that workloads can fluctuate from time to time and encourage our associates to have conversations with their leadership teams for support. Our organization regularly reviews market rates to ensure our compensation rates are competitive. We also strive to offer work life balance along with growth opportunities. We believe our hybrid model is the right blend of at-home days to support flexibility, and in-office days to support team collaboration. Regarding your other comments, we take feedback like this seriously, and I encourage you to reach out to me or another supervisor to discuss your concerns further. Mike Livermoore, AVP Personal Lines Claims
