Selective Insurance reviews

I have no idea where to begin with this place. It's one of the worst places to work on the planet. I was so excited to work at Selective when I first started because of all of the positive things I heard; sadly after almost 6+ years, I'm a former burnout employee who never wants to step back in an office environment because of how terrible this company treated me throughout the years. There is 0 work life balance to this place, no matter how much they will preach it during your interview and in internal emails, don't believe them. I swear, this employee base is brainwashed to think this is a "great place to work" because they need to lie to themselves to get through the day. Managers and senior leaders want employees to make Selective their entire life AND personality. With the employees that play the game of making Selective their entire life and personality, they are consider a favorite on a team and those individuals will get raises more frequently, bigger bonuses, and of course promotions like crazy. With the employees who have a hard boundary of work life balance are punished with more work, not enough credit, and always belittling. Also, the political game and backstabbing at Selective is one of the worst I have ever seen at any company. Oh also, as in most companies, HR will never protect you. Selective's HR department will not only NOT protect you, but they will throw you under the bus too! I know my review will not change the cultural at Selective, but I hope it will save some poor innocent soul considering this company to work at. TLDR: Do not work here if you want to have any sort of joy in your life. This place will drain your soul.

The place is an absolute dumpster fire of a work environment. Get ready to be rewarded with more work from people who can’t properly do their job. Leadership and direct supervisors lack credible knowledge and experience to do their job correctly. There is no repercussions for subpar employees except that their claims find a way off their desk. Speaking of claims, they love to play “where can I hide these claims” by claim dumping onto adjusters desk and telling them to do their best when someone quits then that person tends to quit creating a chain of pass offs. If you speak up you will face repercussions. They claim they promote from within but will always choose an outside candidate with experience rather than providing the training to a current employee to grow. Absolutely zero ongoing training and loves to put on a show about how much they care about employees yet come time to show it (raises) somehow they just can’t do anything for you.
