      Pros

      This is a great company to work for. In most cases management is thoughtful, the company is good to their employees, and the employees are some of the best. The company is also very involved with the community and so committed to allow employees the opportunity to volunteer during their work time. I consider myself fortunate to have had several great job opportunities and the support and mentorship to be successful.

      Cons

      The company is currently making changes which always creates anxiety for the workers. The length of uncertainly only lends itself to increased anxiety. Although there are less opportunities for advancement, it is still a good company.

      Pros

      Great people. Great place to work. I believe that leadership does a good job hiring the right employees, with the right skill set, and provides the best training to allow them to succeed. Work/life balance is a positive and the salaries are very competitive for the Richmond, VA. market. I spent a little less than a decade with Genworth and can say that even in the down times when the company was forced to layoff associates, they handled it with class.

      Cons

      The business environment since 2008 has never really allowed all units of the company to take off at once. First it was USMI, then Variable Annuities, then the Australian IPO and finally Long-Term Care. Senior leaders are constantly being forced to play reactive to the latest problem instead of discovering ways create innovative products that solve the future needs of its clients.
