Thank you for sharing this review. I also think highly of leadership and managers across the organization. If any employee wanted to have a discussion about their career progression, I’d urge them to speak with their manager or HR Business Partner. Symetra also has a robust offering of professional development opportunities for employees, no matter where they’re at in their professional journey.

I’m so impressed by Symetra’s commitment to DEI, not just in discussing it, but admitting there’s work to be done and taking appropriate actions. It’s nice to hear from others who feel the same way!
