Please Beware...The Pro reviews are done by the leadership team to attract potential employees. BEWARE!

Pros

Can't think of a Pro other than a few co-workers that have become friends.

Cons

So many...no raises, no bonuses, horrific benefits package (Sick time & vacation is earned) if you or your children get sick, there goes your vacation; even though we average 55 to 60 hour a week we get no extra time off. the long hours are caused by unorganized leadership leadership, especially in accounting. The CAO is the worst, over the past 12 months she has had a 100% employee turnover and I am in the process. The culture is distrusting, employees have no say in anything. So many childish rules made by the CEO. Employees are not appreciated and there is clearly a power struggle within leadership, which makes the environment even worse.

Growth potential and advancement possibilities.

Company is young and is lagging behind the larger players in the insurance industry in many ways. Poor benefits and pay structure, lack of trust and work/life balance. Management seems to be stuck in the dark ages and is too controlling.
