Pros

Access to senior management, career advancement if you can wait for 5-10 years, good reputation for training within the industry.

Cons

Excessive required travel to Hartford, very structured timeline for career advancement regardless of performance or ability, Company facilities are sub par and in rough areas, industry as a whole hasn't been very profitable which leads to lack of raises and bonuses at very large companies.

Pros

Travelers is a company that truly invests in good people and cares about it's employees. My experience with this company was a refreshing change from what I had previously experienced at another Fortune 500 insurance carrier.

Cons

Given the nature of the ever changing business world, it is not uncommon for Travelers to react quickly to changing trends in the marketplace with restructuring, and even layoffs. Having said that, this company has shown great compassion for those who are laid off.

Pros

Decent salary but the benefits are lacking, especially the health insurance choices.

Cons

Communication lacking from upper management, the lack of training and the fact that everyone was hired from somewhere else and every company does thing differently. Upper management is incompetent and makes spur of the moment decisions without looking at the long term consequences.
