Pros

There are hard work life-time employees that are fantastic, fun and want to do the right thing. If you are looking for a slow pace, long tenure, individual contributor, maintain the status quo culture - you have found the right company!

Cons

Dark offices and cubicles are just a reminder of Assurant's toxic culture of individual contributor encouragement, discouragement of collaboration, and disablement of empowered employees. A promote from within culture has elevated Sr. Leaders based on tenure not domain experience or exceptional leadership, resulting in Assurant safe guarding the status quo. Sr. Leaders use authoritarian and micromanagement principles rather than servant leader, collaborative styles that typically attract top talent. The resulting culture perpetuates a lack of innovation and change required to support an organic growth strategy. The company will continue to grow by inorganic growth and will continue to foster a culture that stymies acquisition of top talent and promotion of innovation.

Pros

Remote work across all lines of business allows for a flexible work environment

Cons

There is almost no opportunity for growth. The company laid off quite a few employees recently as part of a planned reduction in force while also reporting its highest quarterly earnings. There's no loyalty to tenured employees.
