Pros

Management is very flexible about working with your personal schedule, employees work many different shifts. Several product lines to work within. Good benefits, good compensation, great location, and currently improving dated feel of facilities. Company growing at a good rate, many chances for advancement. Current CEO doing a great job growing the all product lines. Good mix of experienced employees and new-comers.

Cons

Working with life insurance, annuities, or benefits can be tedious at times. Currently shifting some operations and consolidating physical size of departments (smaller work spaces).

Business Outlook

Pros

Used to be a great private company to work for until they went public and the new management came on board.

Cons

If your not wiling to suck up to new management, you WILL have trouble here. Management's ego is more important than anything else. Have no issues with verbally abusing their employees. They only promote their favorites and if you are not one of their favorites and aren't sucking up the chances are high of being verbally abused.
