      I appreciate you taking the time to share this review. Our associates lay the foundation of success at our company, and I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the work/life balance and culture within the team. I am proud of the work and innovation our Information Technology department has produced. This includes designing and building new unique business systems, cloud migration efforts, and has been awarded several patents. We couldn’t do this without the strong technical capabilities of our team. Jim Frank – Chief Information Officer

      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      Poor communication Low pay compared to other industry positions Software is old and outdated Positions that are typically salary are hourly based Most "surveys" to gauge employee sentiment are constructed in such a way that no negative feedback can be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
