Pros

Financially solvent, great benefits, and plenty of opportunity to move within.

Cons

Hiring Process is Poor, it took multiple applies just to get an initial interview. Never made it past the first round 5 times in a row only to find out for each one they hired from within. I was highly qualified for each position. Very judgemental managers, who have a chip on their shoulders. Environment lacks genuine joy. Many people are hired to fill diversity quotas and to obtain annual awards such as the Executive Woman's award, whether those people have the best fit for the position or not. Managers are poor leaders more often than not.

Pros

-- Reliably high performing company that is top of its field (ranks 2nd out of 18 large insurance companies) -- Strong and diverse team of data scientists -- Many opportunities for career and technical development -- Collaborative team culture -- Excellent benefits and compensation -- Flexible hours and work from home -- Many opportunities for outreach, volunteering, and hackathons -- Ethical and positive company culture -- Great work life balance

Cons

-- Communication from leadership and between parts of the company could be improved -- Hierarchical company structure (though there is an effort from leadership to change this) -- Staying on the cutting edge means it's difficult to know what's coming 2 years down the line
