Pros

Most coworkers are extremely smart and motivated. There is interest in continuous improvement and an appetite to take risks (but if that change includes IT work, see cons below). You can carry over unused time off from year to year. Regular performance reviews.

Cons

Terrible work-life balance. Product manager positions go to outside top 10 MBA grads unless you get a rare asst PM role (1 in personal lines PM, 2 in PL R&D, 3-4 in commercial lines; and all but the first were added in the past 1-2 years). Minimal opportunity for moving around within the company once in an equity level position even though it is highly desired. Small IT projects that are common sense but cannot show enough dollar improvement in CBA will not be prioritized. Giving positive rating below because they'll continue to improve business results.

Pros

Work from home, Ok opportunities to learn more but opportunities are becoming slim.

Cons

Between Micromanagement, work overload and with the use of vendors and AI employees are at risk. Corporate seems to not care that were all tired of the customers that are being abusive when corporates made bad decisions and these poor people have thousands withdrawn from an AI error. Pay for this level of company and the increasing headaches is not good, no monthly bonus, no commissions. No pension. Health benefits are available but not affordable. And the undo stress is causing my peers to consider quiting even ones that been here over 10yrs
