Pros

PTO - but you will rack up 30+ days that you will never be able to use if you want to meet your unrealistic closing ratio and data integrity requirements in a "work/life balance" 35 hour work week!

Cons

I spent over a decade working 60-80 hours per week and it was still not enough for my incompetent management team. Sedgwick was once great when we had 3-4,000 colleagues but the company grew too fast to 12,000+ through too many acquisitions and then did a horrendous job at assimilating the new people into our culture. Most of the SRS people were handed VP or other meaningless titles so the company is too top-heavy in bloated middle management while understaffed on the claims management side. There used to be so many professional, experienced adjusters but Sedgwick can't put a stop on their revolving door. I once had so much respect for our CEO when he laid out the vision for the company's future but now I just feel used and abused. Once I left and saw the light at a new company, I realized just how brainwashed, exploited and unappreciated I really was. See the light and go find another TPA - they will be getting most of Sedgwick's accounts within the next 3-5 years anyway! Leaving is your only way to get promoted - you will never get an internal move approved.

Pros

3-4 Weeks of PTO at the beginning of every year. The insurance was good up until this year. It is not that great now but better than some.

Cons

Poor Management. Management is uneducated and have no management skills. The company overall has the worst training so most are blind and do not know what to do. The pay seems decent or competitive but it does not add up for all the hours or stress that the positions create. The hiring process and room for promotion is very political. You either have to related to someone in the company or buddies with someone to get promoted or move around. As a whole the company has a very low percentage of African Americans in Management. But contrary to that fact the whole Human Resources Department upper management is African American Women. I guess they are used as pawns. Token Blacks. This is definitely not a company that is for their employees unless you are caucasian, RUN FOR THE HILLS DO NOT SEEK EMPLOYMENT HERE. Most employees here are unhappy. The company has a gloom doom atmosphere. I would say take the job instead of being unemployed otherwise please go elsewhere. By Far the worst company I have ever worked for. Good Luck in your employment endeavors.
