Pros

Wonderful people to work with. Supportive management.

Cons

Work load doesn’t match the pay. You could be handling way more than you had originally started with (almost doing other employees jobs as well), and still get paid almost exactly the same- for years.

Selective Insurance Response

It's always great to see positive comments about the people and management here at Selective. We'll share your sentiment about workload with the appropriate parties for review. Best of luck to you!
