Innovation Stifled - ETS Everest Re Group Employee Review

Pros

Everest in general is very flexible with their schedules and many people leave by four just to give an idea. They also have a solid benefits plan.

Cons

Several departments within the technology group actively avoid industry standards and common work flow management strategies operating as if Everest is still the small company it was. As a result, innovation is stifled and critical bad habits are encouraged throughout many Technology departments. These bad habits are only addressed, if ever, when they blow up and the damage is already done. In the past two months alone, there have already been several untested and uncommunicated deployments throughout the company which caused significant reduction in productivity for critical departments.

Pros

Genuinely cannot think of a compelling pro to list here at this point.

Cons

The IT Infrastructure teams were already rife with terrible QA, critically bad habits and overall defensive and unproductive demeanors. But Everest outdid itself by signing a contract with a service provider to provide staffing moving forward. This was a widely opposed decision that was made so a certain someone in the dept with high power can point to a page and say "see I made the expense number go down. Can I please have another bonus?" The IT infrastructure Deptartment is now flooded with HB1 workers who are blatantly lying on their resumes and get shipped over here in droves in order to perform cheap and mediocre work. If you are not one of them, you will spend and waste a great amount of time training them or making sense of their workflows. All in all, if there's one thing you can expect from the Everest IT Infrastructure dept. is finding a way to perform even worse than it did before. Avoid it like the plague.
