Pros

Don't take a sign on bonus, you will soon regret it. You will learn how management is NOT supposed to treat employees.

Cons

Yearly layoffs always before the holidays. No raises, petty micromagement, unreasonable goals, they will not invest in proper systems so you know they will not invest in you. Mother Aegon just cares about the bottom line.

Thank you for your feedback. We follow a pay per performance model – meaning merit increases and bonuses are determined by the performance of both the individual and Transamerica as a whole. I am glad you mentioned our systems. You are right that they do need updating, and we are currently investing heavily in technology that will help our employees and positively impact our customers. It is an exciting time to be at Transamerica because of all the new initiatives!

Pros

great account management team. Great bosses. pension. decent benefits. managers allow flexibility.

Cons

the account managers are the only ones held accountable. other departments don't answer emails for weeks, don't do their jobs and no one in upper management cares. directly effects account managers so you get yelled at by clients and brokers a lot. don't get paid enough to do the job of the account manager and take on the other departments work.
