Business Outlook
Pros
The hours are relaxed and there's a familial nature in the work environment. There's a concerted focus by management on longevity and growth. Markel is a great place to work for insurance professionals as there are multiple opportunities for professional growth and development as well as career advancement.
Cons
The employee demographics do not lend favorably towards a young ambitious under-30 type. Although co-workers were overly friendly and approachable, it was difficult to develop any real chemistry.
