Pros

Good pay and benefits. Recent management changes should help bring more efficient decision making to the field in the future. Good work life balance and employees are generally nice and willing to help you succeed for the most part.

Cons

No real development program for your underwriting career, work is not intellectually challenging and based mainly on predictive modeling for package underwriting positions, 'checking off the boxes' management wants to see completed are as important if not more important than the actual underwriting work itself, and basically CNA in the insurance marketplace has always been poised as a company that will be great in the future with changes x,y, and z that are currently taking place, and that idea going on for the past few decades with little to no tangible results - company is still lacking respect in the industry especially with the 170+ people recently laid off in the recent 'Project Simplicity' layoff. If you're a millennial, frankly I would not recommend this company. If you're motivated to work hard and want to attain any sort of self actualualization in your career, I would not look here for skills development and career nuturing.

Pros

Good pay and benefits, opportunity for advancement for young professionals

Cons

Traditional "top down" management style. Lip service given to risk taking and innovation, can take months or years to get projects completed when interdepartmental support is needed. Not supportive of risk taking, senior management tends to be punitive if results don't meet expectations.
