Pros

Great Benefits, technology savy, paperless company

Cons

Pay below market salary for desired position. Good Ole boy company. I worked in the Atlanta (Kennesaw, GA) location. Management is horrible. No room for advancement, small office. A female will never be promoted within the company, the men rule. Managers micro manage their employees here. It's 2015 and they do not allow you to work from home. Why not, it's a paperless company.

Pros

As someone who has spent a lot of years at this company, I'm perplexed by some of the bashing. I'm pretty sure I've worked alongside some of the people that have entered negative feedback. The truth is that if you work hard and don't expect that you will be a manager or make a six figure salary three or four years into your career, you'll be very satisfied with your experience at PHLY. No company is perfect, but for its size, this company has excellent access to senior management. Every year they tour all the major offices across the country in a roadshow format (13 of them + the home office) and listen to everyone's concerns and recommendations for improvement. I've never heard of any multi-billion dollar insurance companies that do that. The compensation is fair and there are plenty of incentives (bonus, spot bonus, etc) that close the comp gap between PHLY and other companies. I have seen several of my peers leave this company (and blast it on the way out) only to re-apply a year later.

Cons

Bonus objectives aren't typically released to employees until April or May so you don't know what your goals are until three or more months into the year but the goals don't change much year to year.

Pros

Health benefits. Gym onsite. PTO.

Cons

No room for job advancement/promotions unless your are favored by management. Little to no pay increases. Too much work, poor management support = bad work. Poor company moral. Different rules for different people - no consistency. Bonus goals are not obtainable as management keeps changing guidelines. THE LESS YOU DO THE MORE YOU GET AWARDED. THE MORE YOU DO THE MORE WORK THEY GIVE YOU. NO BALANCE!!!!! Management cannot be trusted seems to be a huge complaint.
