Pros

Pension, 401k match, free parking, tuition reimbursement

Cons

Engineers hold every leadership role in the company and guard against anyone with actual knowledge and skills in disciplines such as sales, client service, underwriting, marketing, claims. Couple that with a men’s club mentality at the top and you have a place that is highly unwelcoming to diverse, non-engineering talent. That being said you can see employees coasting all over the place as the executives duke it out. If you’re an engineer, this is your place. If you want an autopilot job, you could be happy here too. If you’re highly skilled and motivated in other aspects of business, don’t make a pit stop here.

Pros

Pay, benefits, pension, car, corporate card, vacation.

Cons

Ever changing operating standards and requirements from the top down with an expectation to stay up-to-date on sometimes conflicting information. A shift in focus from being an employee-centric company to being a metrics-driven company. Poor management, high turnover (despite advertising high retention during interview), and low morale all around (even pre-COVID). Burn out is common throughout the company. When annual metrics are met, the bar is only raised the next year. Lack of incentive to stay other than "total rewards." If you're in it for the money and can compartmentalize the rest, you'll last.

Great Benefits - Terrible Management

Pros

Medical and 401 benefits are good.

Cons

Managers are not well prepared. They can be abusive of their role dragging their people to treat their co-workers with resentment. The picture shown to the outside world is very different to what happens behind doors. My personal experience was the worst ever in my entire career. For the only time ever, I experienced humiliation and discrimination from co-workers and managers. It's unfortunately that such a great financial structure that offers such great benefits, does not care more for people instead of just numbers. I would not recommend for any one to stay after seeing the first sign of abuse.
