These five-star reviews really brighten up my day, so thank you for sharing! I love that you mentioned mutual respect because I think it’s such a driving force of our culture here. And though I know there is no stock bonus, we do have generous Annual Bonus programs for nearly all employees.

Thank you for the review. I agree that Symetra’s culture and employee benefits are some of our strong points. We operate in competitive markets and retaining our talent is a priority for us. We also regularly monitor salary ranges across our industry and we’re confident that we’re in line with industry standards. We just adjusted salary ranges in November. I am sorry to read your comment about work-life balance. We are continuously looking to refine our staffing models to find the right staffing balance. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or your aligned HR Business Partner to discuss any of these issues.

Thank you for your feedback! I'm not sure what you're referencing in regards to passwords and protected emails, but it is truly helpful to hear about our employees’ experience, and what they see as “great” as well as “not yet great”. One of the areas that we are working to improve and modernize our learning and development capabilities with a focus on career pathways, upskilling and new skilling. Our enterprise-wide priority around Workforce Capabilities will bring transparency to a variety of formal and informal internal opportunities in ways never imagined possible! Our Talent Development team loves to talk to employees about their development; don’t hesitate to reach out to learning@symetra.com.
