      Pros

      Genuine, kind, creative, hard-working, intelligent, supportive people. Benefits are fantastic - ESOP incentivizes all employees to act as owners in all decisions. Clear communication and supportive executives.

      Cons

      An area of opportunity that is actively in the works: use of cutting-edge technology to streamline workflow

      Ownership mindset

      Pros

      RLI equips and incentivizes employees to have an ownership mindset. It is a flat organization with skilled people who are generous with their time and trained to seek win-win outcomes for customers and employees. It is a great place to work!

      Cons

      One of RLI’s greatest strengths is its dedication to empowering product groups to take ownership of all aspects of operations, including technology. At times this has served us well. However, it also has led to silos and inefficiencies. Thankfully, leaders acknowledge this and are committed to pursuing more holistic processes and supporting technologies.

      Pros

      RLI offers great opportunities for continued learning and education, a flexible work schedule, exceptional benefits and retirement plan, and an inclusive environment. The support from colleagues — even across different teams/departments — is outstanding. I've never experienced this level of employee appreciation anywhere else. RLI truly goes above and beyond!

      Cons
