Pros

The other people at the company that aren’t in control of how badly leadership and the PE firm owners screw them. They’re all wonderful people.

Cons

Enormous insurance broker that provides the MOST EXPENSIVE and TERRIBLE insurance coverage to its own employees. Owned by a PE firm that cares only about bottom line EBIDA numbers. Refuses to hire people that aren’t in profit centers to keep EBIDA looking artificially attractive. Doesn’t understand anything about most of the businesses they go out and acquire and don’t care to. Has no idea how to manage the acquisitions they arrange. Acquisition promises are complete lies. DO NOT SELL YOUR BUSINESS TO THEM. Gives away equity like candy so shares are constantly diluted and the shares they dangle in front of employees like carrots will never be worth anything. Uses these worthless shares as bonuses and ‘incentives’ even though no one will see a penny from them. Pays archaic salary rates. CEO’s favorite place is Atlantic City, which says plenty on its own about the sliminess of the place.

Pros

Benefits are good with matching 401K contribution. New CEO recognizes the value of happy employees as a starting point. It's refreshing. He also is working on proprietary AI tools vs off the shelf not to replace employees. His goal is to increase productivity with the support of AI tools so we can spend time on client needs. Strong emphasis on culture and value of the employees.

Cons

Workload can be overwhelming as they acquire new companies. There has been some turnover and it's difficult for any company to find experienced Account Managers.

Pros

Good benefits, pay is okay Immediate managers are pretty great and easy to deal with

Cons

The workload is awful. It has made me rethink my life choices. I go home absolutely miserable on a daily basis and tell my kid to make sure he completes college and does what he loves so he doesn’t end up with a job like this. The company acquires agencies faster than they can higher, and the workload gets dumped on the servicers. Truly an awful workload, anytime it’s brought up to management nothing gets done
