Pros

They used to be a good salary company. As years have passed, experience in the field means nothing to them.

Cons

Get agreements in writing for protection. Everything is monitored, micro managed beyond belief. Goals are unrealistic and in most cases not obtainable. Some managers do not have the experience therefore do not provide adequate support on underwriting topics, questions and or referrals.

Hanover Insurance: A great company to work for

Pros

You can tell many of the employees at Hanover are happy to be working here. I have no worked at this company long, but from speaking to other people it seems like there are many opportunities to move up within the company if you want to. The company provides education reimbursement and generally speaking it's a neat place to work as there is a cafeteria, gym, doctor's office and even a chapel all on campus.

Cons

The only con that I can think of at this time is that the company will not cancel work no matter how bad the weather is. I've heard from employees that have worked here 30+ years that work has never been canceled. I suppose this is a pretty trivial complaint though.
