Selective Insurance reviews

Top heavy management sitting in offices with nothing to do but write reports and no communication with the "little people". Lack of communication between supervisor and employee. Promotions are given to unqualified, no education and inexperience people. Temporary employees are treated better than employees and also hired with better position than employees who have been there for many years. Human resources will disclose information given confidentiality and their behavior unethical.

Executive management demonstrates a serious lack of foresight and repeatedly makes decisions that appear likely to have long-term negative consequences for the company. There is a clear disconnect between leadership and corporate employees, with many employees feeling undervalued and unsupported. Over the past nine years, the company has expanded its footprint by nearly 50% while adding little to no corporate staff and even downsizing certain departments, creating overwhelming workloads and making it difficult to work effectively or efficiently. What was especially disappointing was seeing long-tenured, highly respected employees — some with 30+ years of service and invaluable institutional knowledge — let go in an abrupt and disheartening manner. The impact their departure will have on the organization appears to be greatly underestimated. The ongoing lack of resources, excessive workloads, and poor leadership decisions have created an increasingly stressful and toxic work environment.
