Pros

Pension, 401k match, free parking, tuition reimbursement

Cons

Engineers hold every leadership role in the company and guard against anyone with actual knowledge and skills in disciplines such as sales, client service, underwriting, marketing, claims. Couple that with a men’s club mentality at the top and you have a place that is highly unwelcoming to diverse, non-engineering talent. That being said you can see employees coasting all over the place as the executives duke it out. If you’re an engineer, this is your place. If you want an autopilot job, you could be happy here too. If you’re highly skilled and motivated in other aspects of business, don’t make a pit stop here.

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
