Pros

Nice office with great CO-workers who are fun to work with and are team players. The building has the best restaurant on the first floor.

Cons

Incompetent management who play favorites and who know nothing about insurance or selling it. The morale truly is awful and people can’t wait to retire. The number of people who have left or been terminated is off the charts but no new people joining except a relative of the area president.

Pros

Salary was in market range.

Cons

Manager took zero interest in me. I spoke to her 2 times in the 6 months I was there. It’s just an endless grind to various SEC and investor required reporting. By the time you finish you need to start over. Almost all process are broken. This $13B company runs on excel. It’s a real risk that this company collapses on itself. They purchase companies and destroy everything good about their cultures. I was so happy and content until they purchased us. The executives paint a fake picture of their culture to the street.
