It just keeps getting worse

Pros

The people who I worked with day to day were great and committed to delivering excellent service. Some good benefits, like PTO and 401k.

Cons

Morale is at an all-time low. Since the company was bought out a couple years ago by Brookfield, it keeps plummeting. Culture used to be amazing and people loved working here, but with the constant threat of layoffs hanging over your head, changing corporate dictates on remote/hybrid/in-office work, poor senior managers who are just looking after their own jobs, no/low raises, and poor company communication which used to be great, there's few reasons to stay. It's kind of eerie how people just disappear and later we're informed they were part of a "reduction in force." Doesn't seem to be any reason to who is selected - new or experienced employees are fair game. Everyone is on edge. Those left behind have to pick up the slack as either they aren't hiring a replacement or no one is applying for the job - which is now onsite and pays below market value. The business itself seems to be floundering as the C-suite scrambles to meet the goals set by the parent company. A new logo/brand randomly sprung in the midst of the chaos isn't fooling anybody. And it can't be a good look to clients who are also being hit with rate increases. It's a no-win for everyone.

Pros

PTO Is good. Tuition reimbursement. Workers are intelligent, genuinely good and competent, and you can learn a lot if you apply yourself.

Cons

Lower than average pay across all areas. Zero options for remote or hybrid work. Worse benefits and work life balance since the acquisition. Similar companies have more to offer, with better pay and hybrid or remote choices. I regret to say I no longer recommend this place as an employer to work for, especially if you are experienced or a good worker.

Pros

There are no longer pros to the company within the last 5 months.

Cons

There are a ton of cons. Taking away remote/hybrid and forcing employees to use PTO then complain about numbers not being hit is asinine. Office morale is at an all time low thanks to Brookfield and there have been several lay-offs in November with more to come. It is very clear Brookfield is attempting to push people out to avoid a mass layoff but they’re losing the best employees because of it. The pay is awful. ANICO no longer tries to match the cost of living. There are insurance employers out there who pay a livable wage for the same work. I strongly urge applicants to look for those employers and do not apply at ANICO for the time being.
