Pros

Broad variety of group insurance employer paid (core) and worksite insurance products. Generally has represented more employment opportunity then many insurers over the years. Large employer for medium to large account services work

Cons

Not as good for a long term career as it once was. Shifting many operational and project management positions to lower cost locales. Seen many talented and committed employees be pushed out for cost cutting, short term bottom line thinking to please Wall St. analysts.
