Pros

I always thought of The Travelers as being a very slow moving company that was resistant to change but that can be a great company to work for during a tough economy. The Travelers stuck with a proven approach which worked for them. The work demands were average. I found coworkers to be very devoted although The St. Paul employees were still adjusting to The Travelers culture.

Cons

The Travelers was not very interested in pleasing the customer which could be frustrating.

Pros

Readily recognize employees for their accomplishments, limit audience when addressing employee deficiencies, nice salary and benefits, ample freedom given to employees to do their work autonomously (ie no micromanagement)

Cons

Internal communication could improve, conservative business practices which constrains adapting to the competitive environment, technologically behind the times, communication between departments is poor, no attempt made at the corporate level to develop bonds/work relationships
