      Nationwide at a cross-road.

      Pros

      Fundamentally sound company with fair wages and benefits. We have integrity, and try to do the right thing for the right reasons. As a mutual company, we are not subject to pressure to perform from shareholders.

      Cons

      Currently, there does not appear to be a clear plan to see us through the lack of effective sales distribution, nor a clear vision for our organization structure. Senior Leaders on the PCC seem to spend time at odds with each other. We are a mutual company, yet trying to act like a stock company, yet not compensating individuals at the higher rate of a stock company.

      Pros

      Opportunity to be given new exposures and grow leadership skills. There hasn't been a day where I have been bored or unchallenged. There are usually opportunities to learn new technology and skill sets.

      Cons

      Lot's of work...seldom an 8 hour day!!

      Pros

      Was job growth potential, now maybe just because my boss in not in the same office so it helps to have a work/life balance. Job growth is only good if you are willing to move to Columbus or some other major city. Heavy coporate politics are now in play and you now have to watch your back because everyone is out for their job. The company still has some good benefits when it comes to time off but the health benefits are lackly. Nationwide is losing good employees to Travelers who pays more and has more benefits than our company.

      Cons

      We have some of the worst middle and upper management in the US. In my opinion it's the sole reason why we are in the shape were in currently. Management is so far removed from the customer facing employee it is dismal. Our associate directors and directors are so worried about being political they forget that were all in this together and it's actually a good thing to omit that they are worried too. All in our current state need some leadership development. It's always about the number and not about what's right. I am tired of hearing about the number an why all log notes are not in the file versus looking to see if coverage, liability, and the correct payment was issued. It's suppose to be judgement based now but it appears that rules based decisions are here to stay.
