Pros

There are no Pros working here in my opinion

Cons

Spent $120 just to get started and I was there for all meeting ect. But they do NOT take the time to actually help others succeed.

Pros

It's a Steady big company. Has a few old dinosaurs - people who don't understand the digital space (which is OK -- but not great when you are on a digital design team).

Cons

Not so innovative, doesn't get digital

Pros

Good work/life balance, some very talented and hard-working coworkers, strong retirement benefits. If you are considering selling the products, many pay a high commission.

Cons

Horrendous bureaucracy, under-skilled lifers waiting to retire, bloated management below C-level, nearly total ineptitude with digital, decisions made politically, turf wars, poor treatment of contractors, struggling to restrain costs in low-rate environment, hammered by new DOL fiduciary rules, etc. I expect them to close the LA office when the lease expires in 2017, so I wouldn't work there.
