      Pros

      Pay is competitive, the option to withdraw from a Pension Plan upon retirement along with a 401K, the options of companies that cater food for lunch, the vendors that offer products on Fridays, the discounts and drawings for sport event tickets, fairly flexible work schedule, company location is great and provides many shopping/eating options.

      Cons

      Health insurance is mediocre...great coverage but $2,000 deductible is too high, expensive dental insurance, parking is lacking due to too many employees and not enough spaces, the match the employer contributes to 401K is low.

      Pros

      I can only speak from the IT prospective. I left Torchmark after 14 months. It was a business decision. I returned 5 months later because I was unsatisfied with my new position and I missed the work environment at Torchmark. Torchmark has a complex network infrastructure. It is a challenge. But that is what I like. If you want a boring job, look elsewhere. I am well respected by my peers and managers, and I am treated very well. I needed to have a slightly flexible work schedule which Torchmark provided. I can't say this is possible for everyone, but they do try to work with you when possible. Depending where you live, driving to McKinney is great. I miss all the traffic going to work, and going home, no matter what time it is.

      Cons

      Not sure this is a con. It is not a perfect network infrastructure, and is complicated. However, I see this as guaranteeing me a job. Things seem to move slow, but that is due to the complexity of the IT environment. Things move a little slow because we have to keep people working and systems up. Otherwise, the company will lose major money. However, steps are being taken to remove the network infrastructure complexity.

      Pros

      Nice people. Stable Company. That's it. That is really all I can come up with. Nothing more.

      Cons

      Micro management at its worst. Computer system is 20 years old and is not user friendly. Programmers who know how to program these systems are either dead or retired.
