Pros
Genworth offers decent pay and fairly good benefits. It also has a respected name behind it and is HQed in Richmond, VA which is a fairly inexpensive and low stress environment in which to live.
Cons
There are major issues with upper and middle management at this company. The upper management makes many unrealistic requests and middle management very rarely has the backbone to stand up for the employees. Employees time isn't valued and working late nights and weekends is common. However, unlike a law firm or IB there are not large bonuses to follow or anything such as the route to make "partner" as this is a public corporation. I was flat out told that vacations of more than one work week were "innapropriate," so if you have family overseas be prepared not to see them. I was irritated by the fact that all of the work was run the engine and when I asked about how to differentiate myself, I was given a response roughly akin to "now is not the time to worry about that." The mentality was always that the sky was falling and no one in middle management would ever help to facilitate a few working days to actually improve a process or a forecasting model. Overall it was a very depressing place to be and while working there I felt there was no upward mobility and real ability for lateral moves to other groups where opportunities would be more fruitful. End of the day, a large portion of my group was laid off and of the 5 remaining, 3 left the company for greener pastures. I have no ill will towards the individuals, I just hope the company has changed and that all of that acts as a wake up call.
