Pros

A pension, if you're willing to sacrifice an entire career doing something better and more meaningful in order to get it. Some good co-workers.

Cons

Abysmal compensation package, especially when profit sharing isn't distributed, which it hasn't been for the past two years. You're likely going to need a second job to live comfortably. Fundamentally dishonest and incompetent senior management who surround themselves with themselves and only hear and listen to themselves and then congratulate themselves on how great they sound to themselves while telling everyone else in the company what great decisions they are making, all while making the lives of the employees positively miserable.

Pros

There's a fully funded pension offered after 5 years. Middle management is supportive and let's people work on things they want to work on. Work life balance is generally good (as long as upper management isn't canceling contracts without adequate time to ensure new systems are in place).

Cons

Upper management frequently makes decisions that make developers lives worse. They often force OT to make up for their poor planning, and they blatantly lied about not forcing people back into the office.

Pros

Decent people to work with, no real issues with other employees. Low expectations, no real deadlines. Good place to end your career coasting, or to get a year or two of experience before leaving.

Cons

They severely underpay employees and don't really have a grasp on what they are doing. They consistently lose good employees and are struggling so much they are putting people ~1 year out of college into managerial positions. Recently salaries information has become available and it would appear they practice quiet firing, by what can only be assumed is intentional wage theft. Some employees with years of experience are only making a little over the starting salary of others. Middle management is usually okay, but is hamstrung by upper management. They are very much penny wise pound foolish. Auto Owners is willing to hire and train people consistently rather than pay to retain. I would NOT recommend working here for any real length of time, other than coasting out the last few years of your career or by getting a year in to start with.
