Pros

Health Benefits are completely free to employees. New office in Geoegetown is nice. Call center director gladly listens if you have concerns and does try her best to rememdy them- though she needs an admin assistant at this point, she's overworked.

Cons

Zero cost of living raises- you have to transfer departments or bonus heavily once per quarter. Bonusing is difficult if you arent in sales. Working at Trupanion reminds me a lot of being in high school, it's very cliquish. Management clearly picks favorites, and if you're not a favorite you are picked out for performance reviews, withheld from internal promotions, and retaliated against if you call out sick; the latter of which goes against Seattle's paid sick and safety leave act. Management keeps changing operation procedures and tells care and sales agents at the last minute before changing procedures again, then talks down to us when we ask for clarification. No evening support despite being a 24/7 company. Upper management are blissfully kept unaware of employee concerns by lower management.

Pros

Benefits are excellent. Pet insurance paid. Can bring pet to work. There are dog walkers. Foid trucks. Clean bathrooms. Casual clothes. Can even wear your pajamas to work.

Cons

Revolving door of sales team. Have seen so many people get fired and quit. Its a toxic environment to work. Customer Service software quits during the sales calls. Sketchy managers. Managers are so fake. They are nice but really not.

Pros

Trupanion has a staff of motivated and passionate employees, and it's inspiring to be a part of that. Managers are open to new ideas. The company is growing extremely fast so there is a lot of opportunity for growth and learning.

Cons

The pay at Trupanion is awful, way less than market value for equivalent roles at other companies. There are also a lot of growing pains as people have mentioned, but I do think managers are doing a better job of handling those pains now. Salaried employees are often expected to work way more than 40 hours per week. The current building does not make me feel safe.
