Pros

Friendly environment if you allow it to be. Work from home 1 day a week after you have been here for 18 months.

Cons

Salary compared to industry is far below. When the underwriters are told something will happen to help with workload, not only does that not happen but they do the opposite. I say this with 3 major changes that come to mind just within the last year. You are not reviewed on how well you do your job, but who you know or suck up to. Chance to grow through personal Lines is practically impossible. You will have to go to commercial underwriting first. Plus there you have a whole lot of less work and you get paid more.

Pros

I love my territory, my direct manager, and my team. I enjoy my coworkers. The lunch stipend is nice. I’ve had a lot of really great mentors during my time. The company had given me some good opportunities including free continuing education and career advancement.

Cons

The pay has been lower than the industry standard. The benefits are decent in the long term, but the raises for those growing within the company are almost insulting. Any attempts to negotiate are shut down. Bonuses have also been on the low end, although I recognize they aren’t a given. Paid time off is also somewhat limited with slow increases every 5 years. Upper management has changed and I don’t feel it’s been positive. There has been low morale and high turnover. Starting pay has remained stagnant despite increased demands of returning to office which I feel contributes to staffing difficulties. Cost of gas, car maintenance, and work attire have now cut into wages. The company felt like it cared about its staff when I started, but I have begun to feel like a cog in the corporate wheel. Corners are being cut in the name of “efficiency,” however the foundational flaws haven’t been addressed.
