Pros

Great benefits and bonus package. Nice campus / fitness center / (physically) secure environment. Love the mission of USAA and taking care of our military community. Best group of people I have ever worked with on the front line - extremely caring to each other as well as our membership.

Cons

Too much. I love what I do but too much of anything will bring you down. I agree with continued change to stay current and improve processes. However, it seems there are people trying to justify their jobs by creating new tasks, processes, "hey let's try this this week" - that we question what is the procedure today. I agree with a prior comment that upper management needs to spend time on the front line so they can experience what they are doing to us. It seems the USAA mission is to find ways to make a claims job as complex as possible. Anyone who has ever handled claims knows the job in itself is extremely challenging. By adding all of the templates, referrals, action plans, make sure to put this in this box because someone somewhere needs to collect data for something. It gets extremely overwhelmin - especially when working in a area that has continuous confrontation with people on liability and damage issues. More than 50% of our contact is non-member. Let's get back to the basics of claim handling and treat us like the professionals we are.

Pros

Benefits, Healthcare, Pension, Time off, 401k match, Fitness Centers, Beautiful Campus, intramural sports, all employees get a nice Christmas and end of year bonus. Best leadership and development training I have ever seen. USAA is really good at investing in their employees development. Core Values of Honesty, Integrity, Service, and Loyalty is what we live by. Mission of the organization is the foundation at USAA. We know what it means to serve and our Members are the primary focus not profit.

Cons

Typical corporate politics exist. Networking is the way to advance.

Pros

Challenging work with emphasis on developing employees through training, job rotations, etc. There is great opportunity to learn a lot from many gifted individuals that work there.

Cons

Some areas still lack any measure of work-life balance. The morale is low and people are burned-out.
