Pros

Job security is excellent. The mission and ethics of Securian is top notch. Work environment is laid back.

Cons

In general, if you are good at your job now you'll likely be a superstar at Securian. Unfortunately Securian's 'promote from within' leads to a trend where very unqualified people hold skilled and managerial jobs. In I.S., if an employee isn't good that their skilled technical job then for some reason I.S. senior management seems to think they'll do better in managing the people who actually do their old job well. While there are a handful of great senior/middle managers, most are just patsies

Pros

They are a very stable company that takes the long-term outlook and has conservative risk management. They have high initial salaries compared to other entry level positions. Many promotions come from within.

Cons

They love to tout great benefits but apart from time off and a defined benefit plan, they are nothing special. Raises are down, job growth is down, healthcare costs are up. Even though the market has returned and they have improved their position in the industry, they are still unable to give lower level employees any kind of meaningful raise. Meanwhile, they continue to lavish gift upon gift on sales associates and the "golden" members of the company.
