Cons

This company is not great for technical people.The projects they delivering is Paper projects . I'm writing this to aware about the projects they are handling.No hands-on works . You will be doing technical writer's job.

CNA Corporation Response

CNA works hard to correctly align roles with the skillset and provide less ambiguity about responsibilities. CNA prides itself on being a leader in research and analysis. It seems like there was a misunderstanding in the role and we will take your account to better define our roles.

Business Outlook

Pros

Big focus on modernization, sticks up for employees against annoying clients, flexible remote/hybrid options, solid benefits

Cons

Time logging is annoying, focus on modernization is recent and many things are still old and slow, not always clear what is required of you

CNA Corporation Response

Thank you for your review. CNA has made great effort to make leaps in modernization and think about what is best for our employees from work/life balance to benefits. Being that CNA is a government contractor, it is compliance to log time committed to projects. And if at any time guidance is needed, CNA provides a number of resources from direct supervisors, People Operations, mentors, etc.
