Pros

- Smart, solutions-oriented senior leadership team - Customer focused and believe in the value of quality service in all aspects of the company - Nice perks (fitness facility, free lunch, close parking, etc.) - Fun, collaborative work culture (not all areas, but most) - Recognition programs that reward hard work - Friendly, inviting employees

Cons

- The amount of recent change leaves more tenured employees feeling angst - Benefits could be better (i.e. PTO, maternity/paternity leave, etc.) - Due to the size of the organization, lack of career growth opportunities

Pros

Parking is free, although that's expected outside of downtown. Expect a long walk if you get in after 8am. Lunch is free although you won't want to eat what they serve. Employee gardens are available.

Cons

Max 3% raise annually regardless of performance, bonuses are low or nonexistent, and base salary is not competitive with other companies in the area. Health insurance rates are poor, no home/auto discount for employees now that personal lines is sold, company and employees have created a culture that is afraid of change and technology. Vital systems go down on a weekly basis sometimes for hours at a time. Building is old and leaking with plumbing issues.
