      Commercial Services

      Commercial service representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nationwide has offices in downtown Des Moines that offer parking, an on-site fitness center, cafeteria and access to local businesses. The Commercial Services Department has people that are good to work with and the environment is much more positive than many other call centers.

      Cons

      Nationwide has been great to work for but some times in the CSC there is inconsitency in a lot of things and how guidelines and policies are enforced also like most call centers the day is very sceheduled down to when to take breaks. Also at times it can be difficult to get time off.

      NW does not care about employees

      Senior claims representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      flexible work schedule - I have a good manager - good co-workers - pretty good health coverage, medical , dental, vision.

      Cons

      You can never get away from this job! They give you a cell phone and laptop and at first that is pretty cool, but after a while it is awful. You can't even really get away from this job on vacation... I had to leave the country where my cell phone didn't work to be able to be free. Nationwide will tell you one day that they expect you to be there for your family and the next day tell you that you are expected to take your phone calls and new claim assignments at any time of any day. I am constantly stressed out from this job and it affects every aspect of my life, and it is only getting worse. I am about to the point thay I will accept just about any job to get away from it.

      Great company to work for overall - advancement opportunities are limited unless you want to move to Ohio

      Assistant vice president
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work/life balance; small family-like environment; collaborative. Lots of opportunities to make a difference as the company is growing and being more innovative (as much as one can be for an insurance company)

      Cons

      Over use collaboration, thus slow to make decisions; people have a very difficult time managing performance due to fear of not being "nice". A lot of very tenured people which decreases promotional opportunities.
