NJM Insurance reviews

supervisors and administrators who need to be fired. Used to work at NJM and accepted the fact the pay was below industry standards but they made up for it with the benefits, slowly but surely they are taking them away and killing the working atmosphere at NJM. Instituted a new pay scale which will screw every employee that is not retiring within the next 2 years. Pretty sad when ex presidents will not show up at company functions because they are sick to their stomachs at what has happened.

The major complaint with NJM is the treatment of employees within the personal lines call center. Reps are overworked and micromanaged. Negative reinforcement is practiced 100% of the time. I've learned over years that if you do your work and not make a fuss or offer ideas/opinions (yes woman/ yes man) you will be just fine. PTO often needs to be requested months in advance so plan your time off way ahead of schedule. As earlier reviews have stated politics are very apparent in the office. Reps are rewarded if they go out of their way and explain to the higher ups how a co-worker made a mistake, so if that bothers you.. stay away. Favoritism happens everywhere though. Work attire is strangely judged as I've been told a couple times that my dresses are too short while others get away with loose pants and a tee shirt. To the younger generation reading this.. don't expect snow days. We are expected to work during a state of emergency. Yearly raises average from 2.6%-3.6%. Keep in mind that you're not able to apply for another position within the call center. The next stage of advancement is underwriter which is directly chosen by a management team above your supervisors. Honestly, this job isn't for everyone but it's a way to earn a living. It has allowed this girl to pay her bills without the worry of layoffs.
