I’m glad to you know you enjoyed the benefits at Sentry. I understand claims loads can vary greatly—this has been more of a challenge due to volatile claim volumes and fluid COVID-19 protocols. We’re actively recruiting additional claim representatives to help stabilize our workloads. Please know our pay scales are based on location and national averages for the role. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Michele Dufresne – Chief Claims Officer

Pros

Decent pay and benefits. Friendly work environment.

Cons

Very little training on work load management. Work load itself unrealistic for 1 person, is the established culture set by management which is not changing no matter what the turnover. Very little job satisfaction due to the impossible case load. Little room for advancement without a degree.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I agree our work environment is friendly and supports associates with a well-rounded benefit and compensation package. Regarding your comments on workload, I understand that workloads can vary at times. As part of our management team, you help monitor and distribute that changing workload. I encourage you to speak with your director or myself to discuss options. I disagree with your comment about needing a degree. Sentry U helps support career training, meaning most of our career paths can be supported through on-the-job development and internal training. Tim Kelly – AVP – Commercial Lines Claims

Pros

Colleagues were all very friendly and helpful. Work from home opportunity Good pay Management is knowledgeable

Cons

Work load is unreasonable and unmanageable. You must cut corners to get the work done and it’s still a struggle. Health care plans are not good options. Micromanaging company Salary employee but they count every second you’re gone. Way too many trainings and meeting to attend
