Great place to work

Pros

Casual wear, good benefits, plenty of PTO, separate sick leave, on site gym, cafeteria, coffee shop, wonderful place to work and everyone really cares and is pretty happy for the most part!

Cons

Heavy work load, a lot of people call in sick and take advantage of the sick leave policy in my opinion.

Pros

Family atmosphere, great benefits, decent pay, good work/life balance. Overall, can't see myself working elsewhere.

Cons

4 year degrees don't seem to matter unless you're at the top. Managers seem to turn the other cheek when it comes to lazy employees. You're going to have cons at any place you work. At this company the pros far exceed the cons.

Pros

The list of pros with this company is extensive. Salary is good, benefits are very good, perks are amazing. But the true strength of this company is the culture and its employees. I haven't run in to anyone get that doesn't want to be there. That is amazing and I've never experienced that before. I'm fairly new, but have been in my "career years" for sometime. Objectively, it's not a perfect place to work, but there's no such thing as perfect. Grinnell really goes above and beyond to try to keep everyone engaged and content. I am so glad I stumbled into this job and meshed with the interview panel so well. For the first time in my life I feel I have found a place that I have no concerns about staying at For the remainder of my career. If you are reading this review as part of research into the company due to an interview or job offer, definitely take the job.

Cons

The only cons I can see are with the technology used, but that is being addressed. The new claims system is on a very slow roll-out, but honestly I think that's a good thing. The last company I was with rolled out a new claims system too quickly and it was very buggy from the start. I would not recommend doing it that way.
