Pros

- Not too stressed. But when deadlines are approaching, people begin to panic. - As someone new to the corporate world, most people are nice and willing to answer any questions.

Cons

- 1 hour commute to office just to work on a computer when I could be doing that same thing wfh and then 1 hr commute back (waste of gas, money, time, and sleep) - Have to pay for your own parking (company owns their own garage and you'll still have to pay to park in it, or in other parking garages around downtown) and company does not provide free coffee - If you're unlucky, team/manager will micromanage. For example, forced to work over 8 hours most days for the convenience of others even when you've completed your tasks and at a good place to stop for the day - Ranked against others (it is quite obvious) for raise/bonuses which are not guaranteed and "performance based" - Have to be close and super friendly with your manager in order to obtain a positive performance review for the bonus/raise

Pros

I love working for Travelers. It has a strong culture built on integrity and collaboration. Leadership is visible, accessible, and genuinely invested in the success of the business and its employees. There are real opportunities to grow your career here — the company promotes from within and supports professional development in meaningful ways. I've seen colleagues advance significantly, and I've had the same opportunity myself. Travelers truly cares about its customers and the value insurance brings. Great team atmosphere and tremendous co-workers. **Cons:** The pace is fast and the workload can be demanding, especially in Claims. This is not a 9-to-5 environment, and candidates should come in knowing that. That said, the expectations are clear and the work is meaningful. **Advice to Management:** Keep doing what you're doing. The culture and leadership here are genuinely differentiated — don't lose that as the company continues to grow.

Cons

I don't consider it a con but some might - the pace is fast and the workload can be challenging, especially in Claims. Company is cutting edge so you should be prepared for change and continuous development to meet the business environment. That said, the expectations are clear and the work is meaningful. If you like to be challenged this is a great place to have a career.
