Pros

Not sure of any.

Cons

Overworked and underpaid. There is no such thing as work - life balance in this company. They dump hundreds of files on other people after someone quits and then they expect miracles. And after they do that, KNOWING that it cant be done, the employee is the only one affected by not getting a raise, losing their job, or burning them out so bad that they have no choice but to leave. I now know why this place has a revolving door of employees. No training at all. You are basically thrown to the wolves and given a "good luck" of some kind of message. Most of the new adjusters come in with no background in the insurance industry and this company, since it has no training, leaves those with years of experience in the industry to train these people with no extra pay and still a bottom line that the job needs to be done while doing this. I wouldnt recommend this job to a monkey.

Thank you for your comments. Gallagher Bassett has established training and development resources for our claims professionals. This is especially true for claims adjusters who are new to the business and will go through our trainee program, which takes place over six to nine months with the opportunity for promotions in relation to meeting performance goals. We also rely on our experienced employees to help mentor their peers. More senior claims professionals at Gallagher Bassett carry that responsibility as part of their role, and are compensated accordingly. Employees are also rewarded for pursuing specific external industry designations that helps to build their skills.

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.
