      I have been working at HUB International full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      Great company support, room for growth, and coworkers. HUB wants everyone to succeed both personally and at a team level.

      Cons

      None that I can find since I have been there. Coworkers with more company experience have indicated little to none as well.

      Advice to Management

      Keep it up. The consideration that is taken from employee suggestions is appreciated.

      Cons

      Corporate operational initiatives that make us better and every organization goes through.

      Pros

      Friendly employees, nice location, family like environment. No micromanaging, good benefits. If you know someone you're in good, if not good luck

      Cons

      Impossible work load- out of touch management-quantity is more important than quantity. People are leaving at record numbers and work is just delegated to the employees

      Advice to Management

      Listen to your employees or more will be leaving

      Advice to Management

      Change employee reviews to match with their start date, rather than every employee the same time each year.

      I worked at HUB International full-time (More than 3 years)

      Pros

      Co-workers were great and supportive. Team environment was encouraged by my co-workers and they were really the only resources available for knowledge and help.

      Cons

      Wages are not competitive with other local agencies - no cost of living increases, unless you are a management favorite. Management has non-existent communication. Management does not encourage employee growth where an employee could strive to be promoted, unless you are a management favorite. Former co-workers have indicated that things have not changed since I left.

      Advice to Management

      It was a nice place to work when I started there but things went down hill very quickly in the past few years. Corporate really needs to look and listen to what had and is still going on.

      Pros

      Flexible schedule and nothing else. I honestly can't say nothing nice about this company. It's just a job. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

      Cons

      Management is horrible. There is no room for growth. They are always hiring. Procedures are constantly changing so it's hard to keep up with your work. Pay is not competitive.

      Advice to Management

      They all should be fired... starting with the director and the managers of the mortgage team.

      Pros

      Friendships, Going to lunch, Going home when the day is over, covered parking, long weekends & anytime away from the office.

      Cons

      Poor & dishonest leadership, high stress, low wages, torturous workload, abusive, 2% raises or none at all, too favoritism & nepotism.

      Advice to Management

      Get rid of all the local leaders & managers. They have no understanding of the day to day desk level operations. Regional leaders & managers are dishonest. Producers are greedy, demanding & cold. They would sell insurance to a cockroach if it would buy it. They promote those who lack knowledge & are worthless, instead of those who are truly hardworking. Staff experience repetitive abuse, being overworked & underpaid. Company rakes in record profits, breaking the backs of exhausted staff. Turnover is at a record high at over 15 people in 6 months. If staff are paid & treated well, with realistic workloads there is no reason to leave.

      I have been working at HUB International full-time

      Pros

      There were no pros to speak of based on my experience.

      Cons

      Interviewed with HUB for an open position. After two phone interviews and two in-person interviews, all communications ceased. E-mails and phone calls went unanswered as to next steps or whether I was still a candidate. I consider that very rude and unprofessional. It does not take a lot of time to keep prospective candidates in the loop, especially after they have gone through four separate interviews.
      It felt like they were stealing ideas and concepts during the interview process to call them their own - weird vibe.

      Advice to Management

      Hub International needs a sustainable hiring system that surpasses their competitors. There needs to be more transparency during interview process.
