Pros

Benefits are not as miserly as one would think.

Cons

Being good at intimidating employees is a good managerial trait. Never had a layoff but many people are fired instead.

Pros

-Pension plan, + 8% match on 100% for 401(k), + 90% subsidized health/dental, +$50k free life insurance, +ridiculous (lots of) days off after working there a while. -If you are not a crackhead/convicted of a felony, or incompetent AND in mid/upper management, you will never be fired. -talking to people around the state of NJ, they will say "oh you work for NJM? I love them". Immediately a positive to be working here in the minds of NJ citizens. This is because customer service and rates are the best in the state and have been for decades.

Cons

-As others have said, I.T. department is 20 years behind the times... but I think they were 30 years behind the times 5 years ago, so things are improving... for most employees, this wont impact you at all. -Wages are below average in most job positions, (but the benefits more than make up for this).

Pros

decent salary and benefits, very low level of technical skill actually necessary.

Cons

Who last heard of developers wearing ties every day? The IT dept is in a cold basement with no cell reception. The team leads vary from incompetent at best and malicious at worst. There is nowhere to escalate issues (management doesn't care) and successes go unnoticed. Oh yeah, don't expect any exciting projects. It's going to be dreary and frustrating. Think about this, it's an insurance company which doesn't allow customers to manage their account online (because they haven't built the system). Also, your supervisor gets emailed a list of every website you ever visit. You can forget about any social media or email. Security keeps track of when you come in the door, and being late (you're locked into your schedule) will get you a trip to HR. If you're a smoker, you can forget about it. There is no smoking on company grounds, so you'll find yourself going for a drive off-property. Yes the campus is huge and walking to have a smoke is pretty much out of the question.
