Pros

Was once a nice company to work for. There is a hope that one day things will be better. The retirement benefit was better earlier but company has reduced that last year.

Cons

high politics, unaccountable and incompetent management, environment promoting carrier growth and employee development lacking, increasing unfairness and groupisum, top heavy and disorderly organization structure where there is no clear accountability

Pros

Good benefits package, although benefits reduced annually as cost cutting measure Company has good overall reputation A lot of the employees are knowledgeable and willing to work as a team

Cons

Lack of real management at any level; absolutely no sense that your manager "has your back" Clients becoming more and more aware of company shortcomings A lot of the employees are simply going through the motions and covering themselves; client satisfaction takes a back seat to maintaining status quo. Morale is consistently low.

great benefits, vacation time, learned a lot about annuities / retirement accounts

Cons

poor communication between departments, the service/operations is poor, no follow up to the clients on issues, if you're in the call center you're tied to the phone
