I am right there with you on your thoughts about our leadership team. They really lean into the “Symetra Empowers” spirit by empowering employees across the organization. I understand what you mean about systems needing an update, but please note that in recent years we’ve replaced many legacy systems and it continues to be a priority related to achieving operational efficiency.

It’s not often that I see empathy listed in these reviews, but I am so happy you mentioned it. Empathy is woven into the Symetra Empowers Strategic vision and our Leadership Commitments. We’ve seen many positive changes in recent years, but I understand from an employee perspective that it can be frustrating when change takes longer than we’d like.

I also love our flex work options and being able to work from home, but I do enjoy going to the office occasionally so I can have in-person connections with those great co-workers that you mention!
