      Good Place to Work

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I worked in a group where my manager really cared about the overall welfare of the company, not just his fiefdom (which is very common at other companies). It was a breath of fresh air to have someone looking at the big picture.

      Cons

      Upper management was overly optimistic about what could be done with the resources and timeframes they announced. But that's normal at almost every company.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It's encouraging to hear that your manager fostered a refreshing environment focused on the bigger picture. Also, your note about upper management's optimism regarding resources and timeframes is also duly noted. While enthusiasm is crucial, realistic expectations are vital for success. We strive to strike a balance between ambition and feasibility, ensuring that goals are achievable.

      Honest Review

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Internal learning classes were helpful Ability to move around different departments

      Cons

      Many high performers left due to being told they had opportunities for upward mobility only to watch those opportunities go to outside hires. Lack of integrity or respect in certain management areas Salaries were not competitive Culture seemed more focused on pushing particular political agenda's than on process improvement

      I am grateful for the various professional development opportunities that Symetra offers and I’m glad you found them helpful. Symetra is working on identifying skills needed in the future to help employees be ready, but we will also have to bring in outside talent for their unique experience and perspective, as well. If you’d be willing to share your experience, I would like to hear more about how we can make it better. I can reached at erin.woltz@symetra.com.
